After my long IVF journey, I was scared to take even a single tablet. Please call your doctor's clinic and only take what they prescribe.

Please be very careful with this. If you have a history of preterm labor, placenta previa, or any spotting, sex is definitely not safe. You must consult your gynecologist to get a clear green light based on your scans.

In our family, they say the body starts showing signs like fatigue and food cravings by the second month. While elders suggest resting and eating well, always trust your doctor's advice on managing these early symptoms safely.

I am in my 18th week now and I've only gained like 1.5 kgs so far. I feel so anxious thinking if my baby is growing properly! Did anyone else also gain weight very slowly in the second trimester?

For mild gas, having a bit of warm water or ginger tea works wonders. But honestly, since you are in your 8th month, any lower abdominal pain shouldn't be ignored. Please call your doctor if the pain is constant or sharp.
