Listen, early pregnancy is not the time to show how strong you are. Stop lifting heavy buckets, skip the spicy street food for now, and take your medicines on time. Most importantly, rest when your body asks for it, no compromises there.

Don't worry too much looking for early signs, behna. Sometimes you might not feel anything at all in the first few weeks, and that is completely normal too. Just stay relaxed.

Wait until your period is missed by at least a day or two, and use your very first morning urine for the test. I remember doing it while battling bad nausea, and that early morning test gave the clearest dark line. If it's negative but your period still hasn't come, test again after 3-4 days.

Listen to me, dear. Yes, pregnancy can happen even without full penetration or without the hymen tearing. Sperm are microscopic and can travel if semen was released near the vaginal area. Please do a home test to be absolutely sure.

Yes, it is generally completely safe, just make sure u have enough energy and feel up to it. Since I had gestational diabetes, my focus was so much on maintaining my strict diet, but physical intimacy was never off the table. Just keep your gynac in the loop about how you are feeling.
