I'm planning to conceive and my mother told me that fresh, home-cooked non-veg is very good for building strength.

Non-veg is great for protein, but during my first trimester, the smell of chicken made me vomit. If you can digest it, go ahead.

Yaar, you can actually eat chicken and fish, but avoid raw fish like sushi. Just ensure it's made fresh at home.

It's perfectly safe and highly nutritious. Just avoid cold cuts or undercooked meat to prevent any bacterial infection.

My doctor advised that well-cooked chicken and fish are great sources of protein and iron. Avoid high-mercury fish like king mackerel though.
