Look, travel is fine but don't do any adventurous stuff or travel on bumpy roads in auto-rickshaws. First trimester and third trimester are sensitive. Take your doctor's permission certificate if you are flying, and keep it simple.

Please consult a good doctor to check for blockages or hormonal issues early on. I had some quiet complications that delayed our journey, so getting tested first is safest.

For IVF, the doctor calculates weeks precisely based on transfer date, which helps plan ultrasound dates correctly. Don't book scans early on your own as it adds to extra hospital costs. Let the clinic guide you.

I panicked when someone told me coconut water makes the baby's head too big! But it's totally safe and actually helped with my severe acidity, so don't worry.

I literally survived on cornflakes during my first trimester nausea, totally safe!
