I had such awful morning sickness that gender was the last thing on my mind. Honestly, there is no natural way or diet in Marathi traditions that can select a baby boy, and gender prediction/selection is illegal in India. Just focus on a healthy pregnancy.

Oh I used to spend hours googling this and getting so confused about weeks vs months! Basically, you count from the first day of your last period. Don't overcomplicate it, your doctor's ultrasound report will clearly mention the exact week.

In my family, everyone thought any blood test can find it, but my gynac cleared that we need a specific beta hCG test. Trust your doctor and get the right test done dear.

Don't waste money on expensive fertility clinics right at the start. Just buy cheap strip-based ovulation tests online to find your peak days. It's a very practical way to target your fertile window without spending a bomb.

I just delivered my baby last month! It's incredible to think he was growing inside my uterus just a few weeks ago. Your belly will slowly start showing after the 3rd or 4th month as the uterus grows upwards.
