At my last scan doc said baby weight is thoda on the lower side and i got tensed. Im 30 weeks now. What foods actually help baby gain healthy weight? pls share what worked.
I've had two babies and both were healthy weights. Eat dry fruits daily, have high-protein foods like dal and curd, and take proper left-side sleep which improves blood flow to the baby. Simple as that.
My saas used to make me drink milk with dry fruit powder twice a day, and honestly it helped a lot with the baby's weight. Ask your doctor about your diet, but home-cooked protein-rich food is the best.
Don't run behind expensive commercial protein powders! Just add milk, paneer, eggs, and bananas to your daily diet. They are pocket-friendly and work amazingly well to increase fetal weight.
Don't worry too much, dear, babies often gain maximum weight in the last month. Focus on eating healthy fats like ghee, curd, and nuts, and rest as much as you can. You are doing great!
I know how scary it is when the doctor says the baby's weight is slightly on the lower side. Please don't stress, just eat small frequent meals with protein. Your stress can also affect the baby, so take care.
