Brief Answer:
Do beta-hCG and TVS scan. Consult with gynecologist for prescription.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for your updated information. Followings are my comments:

1) According to your last period date, I can assume that you are currently more than 7 weeks pregnant. You don't need to repeat home pregnancy test at this stage. However, I can suggest you to undergo one blood test for beta-hCG and Trans Vaginal Ultrasound scan (TVS scan) to know the status of pregnancy and fetal well being.

2) You should start taking prenatal vitamin supplements at the earliest. These are essential for better growth and development of fetal nervous system.

You should consult with local gynecologist for complete prescription for vitamins (include Folic acid, DHA and B12) like FOLERA MD or FOLGEL and anti-emetic like DOXINATE or GOODMORN etc. Vitamin should be taken once daily, 1 hr after meal and anti-emetic, 2 tabs at night. Both medicines are continued till 14-16 weeks.

These are preliminary and some other medicines may be required according to your clinical symptoms and lab test reports. Your doctor will guide you and you should do periodic check up.

3) You need to take nutritious balanced diet with more protein and extra calorie. Foods are to be taken: a) Fresh juice everyday from citrus fruits (orange, grape, tangerine) - 1 cup or take solid fruit like apple, banana.

b) Green vegetables like broccoli, XXXXXXX spinach and others like carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, winter squash, corn, yellow or red peppers, tomatoes etc.

c) Dairy foods or products for baby's growth and keeping your bones strong. To get sufficient calcium, drink milk and eat yogurt, cheese. Calcium-fortified soy milk can be taken if you can't digest milk.

d) Protein foods like lean meats, poultry, fish and eggs with minimal amounts of fat. Beans, lentils, split peas, nuts and seeds are also good source of protein.

e) You should take small amount meal (contains whole grain) for 6 times daily. It includes whole grain breads, cereals, crackers and pasta. These will provide fiber and helps to reduce constipation.

4) You should drink more water (2.5-3 lit/ day) for better systemic and feto- placental circulation; AVOID heavy work or lifting heavy object, long journey, high heel shoe, uneven surface, too much forward bending; need adequate sound sleep; maintain genital hygiene properly.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.
