Heartburn was so terrible for me, I used to worry if it's safe to take even a basic gel syrup! I asked my doctor three times before drinking it. Please ask your doctor for a safe medicine name so you don't have to worry.

Don't panic, but high blood pressure is something we can't take lightly during pregnancy. It can be due to stress or body changes, but you must consult your doctor immediately. Please take rest and avoid extra salt for now.

For a normal pregnancy, it's usually 3-4, but if there are any complications, the doctor might do them more frequently. Please follow whatever your gynac recommends, they know what's best for your safety.

For loose motions, my mother-in-law always gave me curd rice and pomegranate juice, which really helped. But if you feel you need medicine like Imodium, please ask your doctor first.

Yes, definitely! My pregnancy tracker app showed that hCG levels only double every 48 hours and might not be high enough in the first 15 days. I tracked my cycle and got a positive only after week 5. Try waiting at least till your missed period date.
