Directly check on the first day after your missed period. No use testing 10 days early and getting stressed over blank strips. Keep it simple and wait for the correct date.

Don't waste money on extra commercial scans unless your doctor advises them. The standard 4-5 scans like NT scan and TIFFA are the most important ones. Stick to your doctor's schedule to keep costs under control.

I can only share what worked for me, which was tracking my cycle very carefully and taking prenatal vitamins before we started trying. We also focused on eating healthier home-cooked food. That seemed to help regulate my cycles.

I know the waiting game can make u feel so anxious and stressed out, and that's completely normal. Try to distract yourself, and if period is late, a simple home test will give u clear answer.

I am still trying to conceive, but from what my elder sister told me, eating a tiny piece sometimes is quite okay. I hope this helps you feel a bit more relaxed, sending u lots of positive vibes.
