We are trying since almost a year now and my mummy suggested i keep some vrat for it. I do believe in all this. Which fast or puja did anyone keep that felt helpful? pls share na.
Bhagwan also wants you to be healthy, so don't go starving yourself in the name of vrat! Eat lots of dry fruits and keep your mood happy, that's the best vrat.
Please don't do any strict fasting that drains your body of nutrients when you are trying to conceive. Your physical health is the biggest priority, so keep your prayers simple and eat well.
Instead of spending on elaborate puja items, we saved that money for our pre-conception doctor visits and tests. Simple prayer at home with clean thoughts is more than enough.
I am too tired to even stand for 10 minutes in my third trimester, so fasting sounds like a distant dream! If you do keep any fast, please make sure you keep sipping coconut water so your body doesn't get dehydrated.
My saas suggested keeping the Karwa Chauth and Vaibhav Lakshmi vrat for good news. I kept them but ate falahar (fruits and milk) throughout the day to keep my energy up.
With a busy work schedule, keeping strict fasts was impossible for me. I just did simple prayers on Mondays and focused on eating healthy, timely meals.
I used to think keeping dry fasts (nirjala) was necessary, but my doctor warned me it's not good when trying to conceive. Don't worry, God understands your intentions even if you eat fruits during your vrat.
Many people keep the Solah Somvar or Santoshi Mata vrat. But practically speaking, just make sure you don't starve yourself because your body needs strength to conceive.
While cultural beliefs are important, medical science says a balanced diet is crucial for ovulation. If you choose to fast, make sure you consult your doctor to ensure you aren't lacking vital nutrients.
Personally, I kept simple fasts on Thursdays and just ate light home-cooked meals once a day. It kept my mind peaceful and calm during the planning phase.
