Just found out im 6 weeks and want to make sure baccha gets all the nutrition from now. Nausea is making it hard to eat much though. What worked for u in these early weeks?
During my first trimester, ginger tea and lemon water helped so much with my severe nausea. Try to eat small portions of simple, non-spicy foods to keep your strength up, as your body is doing a lot of hard work.
My nutritionist at Fortis hospital gave me a very clear plan: dry crackers first thing in the morning for nausea, and small, frequent meals. Definitely ask your hospital's diet team, they provide really customized advice.
Hey, first trimester is all about survival, so don't stress too much if you can't eat super healthy right now! Just eat whatever you can keep down—bland toast, khichdi, or coconut water are lifesavers. You've got this!
Having a history of PCOS made me very cautious about carb spikes, so I tried focusing on complex carbs and protein like paneer and daal. But please don't push yourself too hard; just focus on clean, basic food and get your gynac's advice.
You should focus on folate-rich foods like spinach, whole grains, and citrus fruits, along with your prenatal vitamins. However, because of morning sickness, it's best to discuss your specific dietary requirements with your doctor.
