Everyone at home is saying start kesar milk, but they all mention different months. I am only 13 weeks and dont want to rush anything. When did your gynac say saffron is okay?
Honestly, even though saffron is a traditional thing, I would strongly advise you to check with your gynac first before starting anything new during pregnancy, especially saffron. Every pregnancy is different, and what's safe for one might not be for another. It's always best to get medical clearance to be completely safe.
In our family, we usually start a tiny bit of saffron in warm milk during the third trimester, especially from the seventh month onwards. My mother-in-law believes it's good for the baby. But dear, it is always a good practice to confirm with your doctor, just to be sure it suits your body and pregnancy, okay?
From what I've heard and what my elders suggested, saffron is usually taken in the later stages, like from the 7th or 8th month. People say it helps with delivery and baby's complexion, you know. But it's always good to just check with your doctor once, to be on the safer side, especially if you have any existing conditions.
So, traditionally, saffron is started in the third trimester, maybe around the seventh month mark. The key is moderation – just a few strands in warm milk. Don't overdo it. If you're unsure or have any concerns, a quick call to your doctor's office can clarify everything efficiently.
Most people start taking saffron milk in the third trimester, usually after 7 months. It's believed to help with digestion and also for a fairer complexion for the baby, though that's more of a myth. Just make sure to use a very tiny strand, not too much. A few strands are enough.
