My MIL gave me saffron and said to start with milk, but I am still in early pregnancy. I dont know if there is a right month to begin. When did you start having kesar, if at all?
Little sister, it's a very common question, but you have to be careful. Most people introduce saffron after the first trimester is completed, typically around the fifth or sixth month. Always ensure you're using pure saffron and in moderation. It's crucial to get a green light from your gynecologist before adding anything like this to your diet.
Ho na, saffron is quite popular! Generally, people start taking it from the second trimester onwards, around 5th or 6th month, not too early. They say it helps with complexion and delivery, but always take it in very small quantities, like just a few strands in milk. But it's really important to talk to your gynac first, haan na?
For me, my MIL suggested saffron in milk, but I only started it after my 7th month and that too, just 2-3 strands. I never really took it before that because I was a bit scared. It's best to discuss this with your doctor before starting anything new, as everyone's body is different.
Given my past, I was extremely cautious with everything. With saffron, my doctor strongly advised against it during the first trimester, as it's said to potentially cause contractions in high doses. Please, please talk to your gynac and follow their advice strictly. Every pregnancy is unique and needs personalized care.
Oh, I remember this question! My family also insisted on saffron. I actually panicked a bit, thinking if it was safe. My doctor said small amounts are generally fine, but *only* after the first trimester is safely over, like from the 5th month. Don't take too much, just a couple of strands in milk is enough.
