Hi Sugandha,

I am doing good now. fever bothered me for 5 days, doc prescribed dolo 650, was very hesitant to take the tab, was worried about the side effect on my LO, however doc said paracetmol is safe to take during pregnancy & found the same info on baby center too. How are you feeling now & when are due for NT scan?
Take care

 

Hi Sona,

how is your health now? What did your doc prescribe when u had fever? Even i am taking folic acid & duphaston(twice a day). I am not sure about the womens horlicks. even i am plannign to start one of the drink, will check with my doc on sat & reply back to you.
Take care

 

Hi Shweta,

I am doing gud now. My doc prescribed me crosin650 n Vicks vaporub for blocked nose. I used to apply it at night. I hv read sumwr dat evn duphaston has got bad effect esp if its a female child. It effects on her feminity. I had a word vd my Gyne on dis she said I hv to tk it till 16weeks. well hope u r gud now. I was askin abt health drink because I am a very bad eater. I hardly have any diet which is full of nutrition. Moreover I don't feel lyk eatin much. Do tell me abt ur diet schedule dese days.

Tc n keep smiling.

 

Hi Vasumathy,

many thanks .... and congrats on the forum ... it's a great place and I love to read all thes tories of the other mums amd mum-to-be.
I'm probably the "ugly duckling" here as I'm not an Indian lady, but hubby is Indian and I would call myself half-Indian after 5 years of marriage ....

 

Hi Sona,

Don't know about Mother's Horlicks dear. I am only on prenatal vitamins - the doc here recommended taking them before getting pregnant. So I have been taking them for a few months now.
My mom sent me a porridge (kanji) mix made with diff grains/beans/lentils - similar to Manna Health mix but without the sugar. I sometimes take that with milk.
If you are not able to eat healthy, try to take fruits/veg in liquid form atleast once a day - mix up diff variety juices/smoothies. You can also add oats/nuts/dried fruits. Think of it as medicine and drink a glass regularly - you will also feel healthy.
