I completely understand the panic, my anxiety used to go off the roof with any positive lab report. But please relax, a positive Mantoux test just means you were exposed to the bacteria, it doesn't mean you are sick. Your gynac will explain it clearly.

My bump started showing slowly around week 20. But please make sure you go for all your routine doctor scans to ensure the baby's growth is perfectly on track.

I started showing around week 16. If your belly skin gets dry or itchy as it stretches, try applying pure aloe vera gel at home. But if you ever feel sudden sharp pains with the growth, always check with your doctor.

Hey, don't stress too much about this. Kuch log lucky hote hain jinko bilkul morning sickness nahi hoti, so if you are one of them, bas enjoy karo apni luck!

Of course you can work! Most of us in metro cities travel and work full-time during pregnancy, just stay hydrated and don't take too much stress.
