Sarla Sundaram

In my 3rd trimester, the last thing I need is a UTI added to my endless list of issues! Honestly, drinking water helps, but you really need to call your gynac for this, as home remedies won't clear the bacteria fully.

I felt so nervous and distant from my husband in the first trimester because of the fear. But once our doctor reassured us in the 4th month, we were comfortable. Communication is key during this time.

When I was trying, my mummy told me not to stress and keep checking early. She said body sends subtle signals like mild heaviness or fatigue anyway. Best is to wait peacefully till your missed date, badon ki baat manoge toh stress nahi hoga.

This happens because progesterone slows down digestion and relaxes the valve. When I complained about this at my hospital, the nutritionist gave me a customized meal plan. Definitely ask your doctor for a safe antacid gel if it gets too uncomfortable.

Extreme tiredness is very common early on, but if you feel excessively weak or dizzy, please check with your gynac. It's always safer to let your doctor check your hemoglobin levels.
