Oh, I was so worried about this test and spent days reading about it! Yes, it's done between 24-28 weeks, but please don't stress yourself out because stress can also spike your readings. Just fast properly as told by your lab and u will be fine!

Kiwi is very good for your health, dear. It has folate which prevents birth defects and vitamin C which helps absorb iron. Eat one daily along with your prescribed folic acid tablets, and don't take too much stress about the process.

Reading this brings back all the memories! Feeling bloated (pot phuglya sarkhe vatne) and emotional are so common. It is all so worth it when you hold your baby, hang in there.

Yes, tiredness is totally normal. My saas kept telling me to eat soaked almonds and take afternoon naps because the body works so hard in the beginning.

My family suggested drinking cold milk or chewing fennel seeds for acidity, which gave some relief. For Gelusil syrup, I strictly waited for my doctor's prescription just to keep things completely safe.
