I'm four months pregnant and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to fly. I don't have any complications so far. Do you think it's better to travel by air, or should I stick to traveling by car or train?

I'm in my fifth month of pregnancy and I've heard that urad dal is good for me. I'm curious if it's safe to eat urad dal papad dough, especially because I like it with pepper. Is it okay for me to have this during pregnancy?

It is generally okay to consume urad dal and papad dough during pregnancy as long as it is prepared safely, cooked well, and eaten in moderation. If you have any concerns or experience discomfort like bloating or indigestion, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider.

I'm kind of worried because my wife's pregnancy test at home came back positive, and when we got a urine HCG test done at the lab, it was positive too. The thing is, she's about 5 weeks along, but the ultrasound didn't show a gestational sac. Does this mean she's actually pregnant, or should we be concerned?

Repeat the scan at 7 weeks of gestation and observe,follow your Obstetricians advice.
