Just got my positive test, im like 5 weeks. Honestly thoda confused what to add in my diet from now itself. Mere saath nausea bhi hai so heavy food nahi ho raha. What did you all eat in the early days?
Look, the golden rule for early pregnancy is keeping it light and avoiding raw or unpasteurized foods. My husband is a doctor and he always tells patients not to stress over big diets yet, just take your folic acid regularly. Stick to simple ghar ka khana and stay hydrated.
Just had my baby boy two months back and trust me, the first trimester food game is all about survival. I couldn't stand the smell of tadka at all! I lived on chilled curd rice and fresh juices, so just eat whatever your body is able to keep down without forcing yourself.
It's best to discuss your diet chart with your gynac because everyone's body needs different things based on blood reports. Generally, focusing on folic acid-rich foods like green leafy veggies and whole grains is great. But seriously, do consult your doctor once to get a proper prenatal diet plan.
Honestly in the first few weeks I got so stressed thinking what to eat and what not to eat. I thought I would harm the baby if I ate the wrong thing but my gynac said just eat basic home food. Just focus on simple warm meals like dal chawal and khichdi, don't panic like me!
I completely understand how overwhelming these early days feel, literally everything makes u anxious. Just breathe, u are doing great. Try to have small portions of whatever u can digest, even dry toast or apple slices are perfectly fine right now.
