Posted on Wed, 30 Jul 2014
Question: Hi,is is my first time, I am

Today is tge first day of my missed period. but i could feel something, so I tested for pregnancy today morning using HPT. It showed a faint positive line. Is it a good sign?
I went to lab also and have given urine sample for test. will get reports by evening.

As this is my first time, can you please tell me what would be my next steps in case it turns out to be positive?

Also, since i travel 4 hrs daily to-fro from my office by bus, can that impact my pregnancy negatively in any way? Should I stop doing that?

Brief Answer:
positive result, avoid bus travel.

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam thanks for trusting health care magic.
Congratulations mam for your pregnancy, yes this is a good sign and it is just first day of your missed period so result will be strongly positive soon.
Wait for the evening report and we can discuss further course of action.
Avoid travelling by bus as far as possible.
Train is the best mode of transport in pregnancy but if not feasible then personal car or taxi.
Ever since its a precious pregnancy as you have been trying for about an year already so play safe as much as possible.
Take a note of following things -
- take adequate rest of around 8 hours at night and 2 hours in day if possible.
- take lots green vegetables and fruits daily
- drink ample amount of water
- avoid heavy work or exertion.
Wish you all the best.

as you know how XXXXXXX roads are, bumps, pits and number of sharp speed breakers, please assure me that travelling would not negatively effect my pregnancy. I am worried.
