Hi.u have not mentioned exactly how many weeks your wife is..anyway continue folic acid supplements, have a healthy well balanced diet, avoid any stressful work or travelling ...normal household work is fine..ideally u will have a scan at 11 + weeks for the nasal bone for which the doctor would have given u the date..also basic tests should also be done to see for sugars, thyroid, anaemia...
Next Steps
Meet with your gynaecologist as advised
Health Tips
U need to watch out for
- any bleeding or discharge u need to visit the hospital immediately
- abdominal pain
- vomiting is normal in the first 4 months but if it gets excessive and she is not able to tolerate food or liquids at all then u need to take her to the hospital as she might be dehydrated and might need saline administration
