My saas gave me kesar milk and said it's good for baby's complexion and all. Im 5 months now. I drink it sometimes but not sure if daily kesar is okay during pregnancy. Is it fine yaar?
I have heard from my elders that taking a little saffron milk is very good, but I am still very shy to ask anyone directly. I think starting with a tiny amount after consulting the doctor is the safest way to go.
Yes, you can absolutely enjoy it! 🥛 Just limit it to 2-3 strands daily in your milk, and wait till your second trimester starts. It's great for mood swings too! 😍
Beta, kesar is hot in nature, so we always suggest starting it only from the fifth month onwards. Just add 2 strands to your warm milk at night. Don't take too much of it, excess of anything is not good for the baby.
It's completely normal to feel nervous about everything you eat right now, I was exactly the same. Yes, you can have saffron, but only 1 or 2 strands in warm milk, and preferably after your first trimester is over.
I panicked so much when my MIL gave me kesar milk in my 4th month because I read somewhere online that it causes heat! But my gynac reassured me that 1-2 strands are totally harmless and actually help with sleep and digestion.
I kept researching different brands of saffron for days because I was so scared of adulteration! Please buy only organic, high-quality kesar and use very little. It's safe but we shouldn't overdo it at all.
