There is a family vrat coming and I am around 6 weeks. I feel nausea if stomach is empty, but elders are saying do light fast. Has anyone managed fasting in first trimester?
My MIL really wanted me to keep the fasts but my doctor said early pregnancy is not the time for empty stomach. I did the nirjala ones only as phalahar with fruits and milk. Talk to your gynac na, they will guide based on your health.
Haan I get it, the festival fasts feel important. But pura din bhookha rehna early me thik nahi na. I did fruit and water type fast only. Best pucho apni doctor se before deciding.
Be a bit careful with fasting, long gaps without food can drop your sugar and make you dizzy. I had to eat at regular times. If you fast, keep light things handy and dont skip water. Doctor check is best.
Bhagwan bhi samajhte hain beta, your baby comes first now. A modified fast with fruit and water is enough devotion. Please run it by your doctor before, just to be safe with your body.
I cant tell you whats safe medically, but in my own case I avoided full fasts in the early months and just did light vrat with milk and fruits. Felt better that way.
Honestly with the nausea I couldnt even think of fasting early on, empty stomach made it 10x worse for me. If you must fast keep eating small things like fruit, dry fruits, milk. Dont go fully without food in first trimester.
