Started taking kesar in milk after everyone insisted, but i keep wondering how much is okay in a day. Dont want to overdo it na. Im 5 months, anyone knows the right amount?
I am in my 5th month and just started taking 2 strands of kesar in my milk at night. Did your doctor say it's safe to start in the first trimester too?
My pregnancy app tracker said that limited saffron is fine after the first trimester. It helps with digestion and mood swings, but only in very small quantities.
No need to buy expensive high amounts of saffron. Just add a tiny pinch (2 strands) in your daily milk cup from the second trimester. It is practical and safe.
Oh my god, I used to count exactly two strands because I read too much of it can cause heat and contractions! Just stick to 1-2 strands so you don't overthink it like me.
I completely understand how every little thing you eat can make you feel anxious. Just having a tiny pinch (1-2 strands) is totally normal and safe, so please don't stress over it.
Actually, please check with your gynac before starting kesar, especially if you have had complications. Usually 1-2 strands are okay, but doctor's clearance is best.
