is there any gyno you suggest. .I stay in ramamurthynagar. XXXXXXX
Brief Answer:
Local gynecologist is the best
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, in my opinion it will be best if you get her booked with some nearby gynecologist in ranthambore itself so that it is convenient to both of you because you will need to visit her every month at least and weekly basis in last month.
In case everything stays normal then any qualified gynecologist is competent enough to manage a normally progressing pregnancy.
In case she will feel like referring you for any issue she will guide you the best.
All the best.

Brief Answer:
alright to go for walk.

Everything will be fine.
