Chill yaar, don't stress too much about this. A little baking soda in home-made idli or dhokla once in a while is totally fine!

My mother always says natural fermentation is best for the stomach. We avoided using baking soda at home during my conceiving days.

Most tracking apps suggest limiting processed foods with soda while trying. Natural home-cooked meals are always the best choice.

I am also trying to conceive and avoiding outside food with soda now. Just trying to eat simple ghar ka khana.

Antara Rout · Answer

As a working mom, I know we can't avoid outside food entirely. Just try to limit Chinese or junk food containing excess soda as much as you can.

I had plenty of fermented food with soda during my journey and had a smooth normal delivery. It's totally fine, a little bit is harmless.

Try to use natural fermentation with curd instead of adding soda to food. If you feel severe acidity or pain, do consult your doctor.
