I'm on my 14th day after IUI and I've been taking progesterone tablets. I've noticed some white discharge. Could this be a sign of my period or maybe pregnancy? I'm wondering when I should take a pregnancy test.

The white discharge you are experiencing could be a symptom of early pregnancy. It is common to have an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy. To confirm whether you are pregnant or not, you can take a pregnancy test. It is recommended to wait at least 14 days after the IUI procedure before taking a pregnancy test for accurate results.

I've got a couple of things on my mind. I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant and wondering if it's okay to have bournvita milk during pregnancy? It really tastes good, and I'm curious if it's safe for my baby. Today, I had two tablespoons in warm milk for the first time and now I'm questioning if it's alright to keep having it throughout my pregnancy. Another thing, my ObGyn recommended Mothers Horlicks to me but I can't seem to find it anywhere, not even online. Do you have any suggestions for a substitute?

It's generally safe to have Bournvita in moderation during pregnancy, but keep in mind it contains sugar and added ingredients. 1-2 tablespoons with milk is fine, but you should be cautious not to overconsume. For a substitute for Mother's Horlicks, you can try other pregnancy-specific nutritional drinks like Ensure or Similac Mom, or consult your doctor for alternative options that meet your nutritional needs.
