I'm wondering about my 8 weeks 4 days scan. The gestational sac measured 27.9mm but is measuring 7 weeks 4 days. The fetal heart rate was over 175 and the CRL was 20mm. Is it normal for the sac to be measuring a week behind, and should I be concerned about any potential complications because of this?

Is it okay to use saliva as a lubricant during sex or masturbation? I'm just wondering if there are any health concerns or risks I should be aware of.

Using saliva as a lubricant during sex or masturbation is not recommended as it can increase the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV, herpes, and gonorrhea, and may also cause vaginal or anal irritation, yeast infections, or other infections; instead, opt for water-based or silicone-based lubricants
