My MIL keeps saying I should start kesar milk but actually I'm only in my 3rd month na. She says baccha gora hota hai but I just want to know the right time to begin. Anyone here started saffron, which month did u start?
Saffron is generally safe in moderation, dear. For my IVF journey, I was very cautious and only started taking 1-2 strands in milk after my fifth month when things felt more stable. Please consult your doc before starting anything new.
Arre, with my twins, everyone was advising me to eat saffron for fair babies, which is such a myth! I started in the 5th month just for the nice sleep it gives. Do not go overboard though, a tiny pinch is enough to keep u and the babies happy.
Most pregnancy trackers suggest starting saffron in the second trimester, after 12-14 weeks. I logged it in my app too and stuck to just 2-3 strands. It's great for digestion, but definitely check your daily nutrition logs!
I used to get so stressed about when to start kesar and if it would cause heat in the body. My gynac reassured me that starting 1-2 strands in warm milk from the 5th month is totally fine and normal. So relax, it's safe if u keep it minimal.
Honestly, I started having kesar milk from the beginning of second trimester, around 5th month. It really helped with my sleep and mood! Just keep the quantity very limited, like 2 strands is more than enough.
