My MIL is very keen on giving me kesar wala doodh, says it makes baby fair lol. Im only in 1st trimester though. Is there a right time to start kesar milk or can i have it now? curious what u all did.
Personally, I started having 2 strands of kesar in warm milk from my fifth month onwards. My grandmother insisted on it and it tasted really nice before bedtime.
Kesar is quite expensive, so I only bought a small box and used just 1 or 2 strands daily from the fifth month. Save your money for the upcoming hospital delivery expenses instead of buying bulk saffron!
My doc told me to start kesar milk only after my fifth month because early on it can cause body heat. I had a C-section later on, but taking kesar in moderation in the second trimester was very comforting.
I couldn't stand the smell of milk at all during my first trimester due to severe nausea. I only started kesar milk in my 6th month when my vomiting finally stopped.
I remember drinking kesar milk every night in my third trimester, thinking it would make my baby fair, haha! Now my toddler is active and healthy, and I realize it was just good for my sleep.
