Sarla Apte

I felt so paranoid when trying to conceive, checking every single herb online. I used to love chewing saunf but stopped because of some internet rumors. Honestly, my doctor told me small normal quantities in food are absolutely fine.

I totally understand how worrying this feels. So many women do become moms despite it, with proper care. Take it one step at a time with your doctor, you are not alone.

Early on it feels like flutters or gas, then it grows into clear kicks and pokes. Second time I recognised it much sooner, around 16 weeks. In later months your doctor may ask you to count kicks daily, do take that seriously.

I felt a bit upset when they first appeared honestly, those lines on my belly. But then I read it is just the skin stretching for the baby and it is so common. They faded a lot after delivery.

I just had this recommended to us and I was nervous reading about it. The doctor said it checks for any blockage in the tubes. Glad to hear others did it and it was fine.
