I had gestational diabetes during my pregnancy, so I learned to monitor every small symptom very carefully. Spotting can be a normal sign of implantation, but any kind of bleeding should be discussed with your doctor to make sure everything is completely fine.

Absolutely not. Norethisterone is contraindicated in pregnancy and can cause hormonal complications. Stop the medicine immediately and book an appointment with your doctor.

When I was staying at my mom's place in the early weeks, my mother gently advised to keep things light and avoid too much strain. It's always best to ask your doctor during your first scan to be 100% sure.

Yes, dry mouth is quite common in early pregnancy. Just keep yourself hydrated with lots of water and fresh juices.

I actually eat bhindi a lot these days but sometimes get scared if too much is bad. Is anyone else also craving it daily in their second trimester? Please let me know if it's completely fine.
