I'm 24 weeks pregnant and have been struggling with asthma for the past couple of weeks. I'm really worried and would love some advice on what kind of diet I should be following and if there's a way to manage asthma during pregnancy. Is there any risk or danger to my pregnancy because of this?

View allCan you touch your cervix?
Your body position should allow you to easily reach your cervix. That may be sitting on the toilet, putting one leg up on the edge of the bathtub, or squatting. Reach your finger inside of your vagina. Use the index or middle finger and slowly slide your finger in as far as you can reach, in sort of an upward motion.

I'm concerned because I missed my double marker test but I did manage to get my NT scan right at the start of my 14th week. Are the results from this NT scan accurate at 14 weeks? My doctor mentioned doing the Triple Marker test at 16 weeks, but I'm wondering if the Triple Marker test is better than the Quadruple Marker test. I'm 35 now and really don't want to take any risks when it comes to my baby. Could you help me figure out the best steps to take from here?
The NT scan is a risk assessment tool, not a diagnostic test. It can't tell for sure if a baby has a problem, so another test is needed to confirm a diagnosis.The quadruple marker test is generally more sensitive than the triple marker test, and is recommended for women who are at higher risk of chromosomal abnormalities

How do you stop your period immediately?
There is no safe or effective way to stop menstruation right away, so if you want to delay your period due to an appointment next week or next month, you should talk to your doctor about the best method to delay the onset of your period.
