Yes, acidity is very common from the start due to hormones. Try eating small meals frequently and avoid lying down immediately after eating. Drinking cold milk ghar pe also gives instant relief.

Leg aches are very common due to hormonal changes and increased blood flow. I used to ask my husband to gently massage my legs with warm mustard oil, it helped me sleep so much better.

I would advise you to hold off on using Arnica gel until you speak with your doctor. Your skin is super sensitive right now and we don't know how it might affect the baby, so let's be safe.

Please take it very easy, especially in the first trimester. Just eat simple ghar ka khana, take your folic acid daily, and don't lift heavy things. Always listen to your body and rest whenever you feel tired.

When I had headaches, my mom used to gently massage my head with warm coconut oil, which worked like magic. Just rest in a quiet, dark room for some time. But if the headache is very severe or accompanied by blurry vision, please let your gynac know.
