Actually, my mom told me to start kesar milk only after the first trimester is over, around the 5th month. Don't put too much, just 2 strands are enough because it generates heat, yaar. It really helps with sleep at night!
Kesar milk at night is a wonderful natural remedy for insomnia and digestion issues during pregnancy. I started it in my 5th month, just adding 2 strands to warm organic milk. But if you face any unusual stomach pain or acidity, please stop and consult your gynac.
I was so scared that kesar would cause heat and harm the baby in the beginning! But my doctor reassured me that 2-3 strands in warm milk from the second trimester is completely safe. It actually helped me sleep so much better.
Start having saffron milk from your second trimester, around the 5th month. Do not have it in the first trimester as it can cause body heat. Just 2 strands in warm milk at night is more than enough, don't overdo it.
I started having it in my second trimester, but I made sure to check with my doctor first during my regular thyroid check-up. Just add one or two strands in warm milk before sleeping. Make sure your thyroid levels are under control with timely doctor visits.
My MIL is also telling me to start kesar milk now that I've entered my 5th month. Did you guys use any specific organic brand? I'm planning to start tonight with just two strands because I have terrible sleep issues lately.
Haan na, kesar milk is so good for digestion and sleep! Most elders say to start it from the fifth month onwards when the baby's movements start. Just put a little bit and enjoy, it really gives nice comfort.
I am planning to conceive soon and reading up on all these traditional things. Is saffron milk really helpful for baby's complexion or is that just a myth? I'd love to try it once I get my positive test!
