I felt so nauseous in my first trimester that I could only eat dry toast and apples. Just eat whatever stays down, your baby will get the nutrition.

Fully agree on keeping it simple; coconut water and bananas were a lifesaver for me.

Focus on fresh fruits, green leafy veggies, and light dals in the first trimester. Don't force yourself to overeat, just eat small portions frequently.

I had to feed three of us, so I tried eating almonds, curd, and coconut water. But mostly, I just ate whatever didn't make me throw up!

Be careful with too many sweet fruits or white carbs early on. It's better to stick to high-fiber foods and whole grains to keep your blood sugar stable.

I was so scared of eating the wrong thing in my first weeks. I stuck strictly to boiled veggies and simple dal-chawal, always washing everything twice!

Honestly yaar, early pregnancy mein nothing feels like eating due to nausea. Actually, having dry biscuits first thing in the morning really helped me.
