Im in my 7th month now and everyone at home is giving different advice about diet. I just want to make sure baby is getting enough and im not missing anything important. What did u all focus on in this month?
In my 7th month amma made sure I had ragi, lots of greens and a glass of milk daily. Curd, fruits and good ghee in moderation too. But she always said let the doctor guide on iron and calcium tablets.
Third tri baby grows fast so protein is key, dal, eggs, paneer, chicken if u eat. Plus iron and calcium rich stuff, palak, milk, til. Keep meals smaller coz the bump pushes the stomach up. Worked great for me.
Eat well but watch the sweets if ur doctor flagged sugar like mine did. I focused on protein, veggies, whole grains and split my meals through the day. Get ur sugar checked this month, its routine in 3rd tri.
U dont need expensive things. Dal chawal, sabzi, egg, seasonal fruit, dahi and milk cover most of it. I added soaked badam and a banana for energy. Simple ghar ka khana is more than enough.
By 7th month I was tired by evening, so I kept easy protein snacks handy, boiled eggs, roasted chana, fruit. Carried a water bottle everywhere. Iron and calcium were on track coz my gynac kept checking.
