Everyone in my family keeps telling me to start kesar milk for fair baby haan i know thats just a myth. But still i want to take it for health. From which month is it ok to start?
Actually, my doctor specifically mentioned that if I want to take saffron, I should only start in the third trimester, from the 7th or 8th month. She said to use it in very small quantities, like 2-3 strands per day in milk. Anything more can potentially lead to increased body heat. So moderation is key, and after consulting your gynac.
Culturally, many people start taking saffron in the third trimester, typically from the seventh month onwards. The belief is it helps with a fair complexion for the baby and eases labor. However, there's no strong scientific evidence for these claims. It's best to discuss with your gynac before starting any supplements or traditional remedies.
I started taking it around my seventh month because everyone around me suggested it for a fair baby, and I felt like I should try everything for my little one. I used to put a tiny bit in warm milk every night. It felt comforting, like I was doing something special for my baby. Just check with your doctor once, though.
Haha, saffron for gora baccha, right? My MIL also keeps pushing it. I started taking it around 7th month, mostly just adding a few strands to my milk for flavor, not really expecting miracles. At this point, I'm just tired and want my baby to come out healthy, fair or not! Just take very little, don't overdo it.
Yaar, mostly people say 7th month onwards, right? Meri MIL bhi bolti thi. Actually, there's no rule, some start earlier also, but like 1-2 strands hi dalna milk mein. It's more about tradition. My doc said it's totally fine, but don't expect baby ka rang badalne wala hai. Just a nice feel, I guess!
From the seventh month onwards is generally fine. Don't take too much, just a couple of strands in milk or kheer is enough. It's more of a tradition, but it does add some warmth and flavor. Don't stress too much about the 'gora baccha' part, focus on overall nutrition.
