It is best to test 1-2 days after your missed period. If it's positive and you have any thyroid history like me, please go to your doctor immediately because thyroid meds might need an instant dosage change.

I felt so much heaviness and shooting pain in my breasts during the first few weeks, I was actually shocked. It felt like they were growing overnight! It got much better by the second trimester, so hold on.

I have been reading up on healthy habits while trying to conceive, and kefir seems like a really good option for gut health. I am planning to start drinking the pasteurized version soon. It's safe as long as it's not raw, from what I've gathered.

I was so stressed because I had absolutely zero symptoms until my 7th week, and I thought something was wrong. But my gynac reassured me that it's completely normal not to feel anything early on. Don't worry, every pregnancy is unique.

Listen to me, don't pressure yourself or your partner by making it a daily chore. Having sex every 2 days during your fertile week is perfectly fine. Keep yourself relaxed and don't let this journey stress you out.
