My mom got me some good kesar and keeps telling me to start having it. But im not sure which month is right to begin or how much. Did anyone here take it, when did u start?
Beta in our families saffron in warm milk is given usually in the later months, just a few strands, not more. It is more of a tradition than medicine. A tiny pinch is fine, but always ask your doctor if she agrees.
My family added a little kesar to milk in the third trimester, more for comfort and tradition. I kept it minimal. My doctor said small quantity is no issue, so I went with that.
Honestly there are lots of beliefs around saffron but no proof it does anything special for the baby's colour and all. A tiny amount is generally fine if you enjoy it. Just dont overdo it and check with your gynac to be sure.
I took a couple of saffron strands in milk in my later trimesters, very little. The key is small amount, not loads, because too much isnt advised. If your doctor is okay with it, then a pinch is harmless.
