Take it very easy on yourself. Just focus on eating healthy home-cooked meals and get as much rest as you can. Your body knows what to do, so trust the process.
Having gone through a miscarriage before, I was extremely cautious about everything I ate. I asked my doctor about drumsticks, and she reassured me that eating the cooked pods in normal food quantities is completely safe and healthy. Just avoid any herbal supplements or roots of the drumstick tree.
When I was staying at my parent's house, my mother told me this happens because the baby is growing and pulling the muscles. She used to give me a gentle massage around that area. Just wear comfortable cotton clothes and rest as much as you can.
It absolutely can! A normal abdominal scan is great once you are around 7 to 8 weeks along to see the baby and the heartbeat. In my case, they did an abdominal one first, and it was such a positive experience to see the little heartbeat. Just go for it when your doctor schedules it!
My doctor explained that oats contain beta-glucans which are great for heart health and digestion during pregnancy, so it's a great choice.
