Due next month so trying to plan my diet for after delivery in advance. Will be breastfeeding so want to eat stuff that helps with milk and recovery. Ghar pe everyone has different gyaan. What did you all actually eat in those first weeks?
Most pregnancy apps actually have a good post-delivery diet section. They focus on protein, iron, and fibre to aid recovery and milk production if you're breastfeeding. Just make sure to cross-check with your doctor, as everyone's recovery is different.
After my delivery, I had some complications, so my doctor gave me a very specific diet to follow for a few weeks. It's really crucial to consult your gynac or a dietitian to get a personalised plan based on your recovery and any specific needs. Don't just follow general advice blindly.
After delivery, focus on wholesome, easy-to-digest foods. Lots of dal, roti, sabzi, and ghee. Avoid very spicy or cold things. Khichdi is also very good. Keeps your energy up and helps with recovery.
I've heard that after pregnancy, it's very important to eat foods that give you strength and help recovery. My mother-in-law mentioned lots of dry fruit ladoos and healthy soups.
