I totally understand how confusing all these food rules can be when you just want to protect your little miracle. It's best to avoid unripe papaya and pineapple to be completely safe. There are so many other wonderful fruits you can enjoy right now, take care dear!

Beta, don't take any strong English medicines like Saridon on your own now. Mummy always used to rub a little balm on my forehead or give me ginger tea, but if it's severe, ask your doctor.

Keeping myself happy and eating my favorite food kept my mind so positive! A happy mom makes a happy baby, and that is spiritual enough.

Yes, my consultant at the hospital specifically told me that tetracycline is strictly avoided because it interferes with fetal bone and dental development. Always double-check any prescription with your OB-GYN before buying it from the pharmacy.

I remember trying to feel my belly in those early weeks, but I was so bloated and nauseous that touching it just made me feel more sick! Honestly, you won't feel anything hard until the second trimester. Just focus on managing the nausea for now.
