Test on the morning after your missed period. I kept a kit ready in my bathroom so I could do it quickly before rushing to work. Doing it in the evening might give a false negative because urine gets diluted, so stick to the morning.

I lost a baby before, so I always tell moms to be extra careful. Tobacco in any form, including snuff, increases the risk of complications significantly. Please protect your little one and stay completely away from it, it's just not worth the risk.

I had crazy cravings for jalapeno poppers in my first trimester! I felt so guilty after eating them thinking it might hurt the baby, but honestly everything was perfectly fine. Just don't eat too much.

I still remember crying during my 20-week anomaly scan when I saw my baby's fully formed face. The main scans are the dating scan early on, the NT scan in the first trimester, and the anatomy scan in the second. Every scan is a beautiful milestone, enjoy them.

Fertile days track karna thoda confusing hota hai, ho na? Most doctors say that the 10th to 17th day of your cycle are the best days to try. Just stay relaxed and don't take too much pressure.
