First time mom here and I keep reading about brain development na, so thoda overthinking. What foods or habits actually help the baby's brain? pls share if you did something during ur pregnancy.
Haan, sab log bolte hain to eat almonds and walnuts daily for baby's brain development. Main to har roz almonds bhigo kar khati thi subah. Positive socho aur happy raho, baby pe bilkul wahi asar padta hai na.
My MIL made sure I had a bowl of soaked almonds and walnuts every single morning for this. She also told me to read good books and avoid watching scary movies, saying the child grasps everything from ghar ka environment. It's sweet how they care about these things.
When I asked the chief nutritionist at the hospital about this, she explained that DHA and folic acid are key. They gave me a proper diet plan with balanced proteins and healthy fats. Definitely ask your own hospital team during your next scan session, they guide so well.
Look, the most important thing is to take your folic acid and prenatal vitamins regularly as prescribed. Please check with your gynac before starting any special herbs or supplements that people suggest. Always trust your doctor's advice over random tips for safety.
Because of my PCOS history, my pregnancy was already a bit high-risk, so I never tried any untested remedies. I just stuck to my daily vitamins, ate a very basic clean diet, and did light walks. Just take care of your health first, baby will be perfectly fine.
