Hi there, I hope you are well. As you've been suffering from morning sickness here's what you can do. 1) On waking up you can consume ginger water, jeera water or have a whole wheat crackers, or on occasional days you can have home-made ginger candy or chew on to some mint that you have at home. 2) Have light meals in the day, switch to dal chawal, curd rice, kadhi khichdi, etc. 3) Have small meals throughout the day and avoid larger meals. 4) Avoid having heavy meals for dinner. 5) You can have home -made popsicles which are made up of coconut water, watermelon, mint, etc. 6) Drink more water and keep yourself hydrated. 7) Avoid spicy or fried foods before bedtime. 8) Throughout the day you can have lemon water ( 1-2 glasses), have citrus fruits, and banana. 9) Sip on herbal teas such as chamomile or spearmint tea. 10) Consume chicken broth and protein rich foods to manage morning sickness. I hope this helps , Take care ✨

I am a working mother and my schedule gets too overwhelming. I barely get time to eat on some days. But eventually I have come to realize that this pattern is taking a toll on my mental and physical health. and Now i want to move towards indulging in some self-care each days despite of all the work. How can I start doing that?
Hello Anonymous, I am krisha sanghvi, a counselling psychologist here to help! It's completely understandable to feel overwhelmed as a working mother. You're doing an incredible job managing so much. To start incorporating self-care, try setting aside 10 minutes each day for activities you enjoy, such as reading a book, taking a short walk, or practicing deep breathing exercises. Preparing healthy snacks in advance can also help ensure you’re nourished. If you would like to talk and understand it more, join my live session.

how many chapati is considered healthy for a 28 year old 5.2 feet 60 weight breastfeeding mom of 2.3 year old. how should a nutritious daily diet look like? I was 55 before being pregnant. I am finding it hard to lose the extra weight. I was also diagnosed with hypoglycemia after which I felt the urge to eat more and started weight gain.
Anonymous14d
thank you.. this helps. I will consider private sessions in the coming days.
Hi there, I hope you are well. It is important to understand your entire lifestyle to be able to suggest a proper diet. I'd urge you to book a one-one consultation so that I can plan a personalized diet for you as per your daily requirement and nutritional needs. - Essentially two chapatis, along with sabji ( a fibre source) and dal/pulses ( protein) should be good to start with. - A daily nutritious diet should have a blend of enough complex carbohydrates ( oats, wheat, barley), protein ( beans, lentils, sprouts, dairy and dairy products, nuts, and seeds, eggs, chicken, fish), and good fats ( fatty fish, nuts, seeds). Majority of your calories come from carbs, then, protein, and then good fats. - Gradually add some activity in to your routine, it can begin from walking and then you can opt for body weight exercises, Tabata, HIIT, etc. Move as much as possible. - Don't leave a gap of more than 3-4hrs in between your meals. - Get good sleep, and manage stress Take care ✨

Can you provide guidance on nutritional needs during key life stages for women, such as pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, and postpartum, focusing on optimal nourishment for both maternal and fetal health?
Hi there yes I can guide you on every stage,let me know more about . For one on one consultation you can connect with me 😀
Hi there, I hope you are well. Before and during conception nutrients like Iron, Folate, Vitamin A, Iodine, Calcium, Vitamin B12, and Protein are of prime importance. - Iron is necessary to avoid anemia, as to support the increased blood requirement in the body. Green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, dates, beans, amaranth, ragi are good sources of the same. - Folate- Folate is necessary to avoid neural tube defects in the fetus, and to support growth of the body. Leafy green, beans, lentils, nuts are good sources of the same. - Calcium- Calcium requirements increase as your bones are supporting a pregnancy ( especially the back and pelvis). Dairy and dairy products, sesame seeds, fish, leafy greens are good sources. Even fortified foods. -Vitamin D- Sunlight is the primary source. However, eggs, fish, nuts, fortified foods are some good sources of the same.Vitamin D is needed for absorption of Calcium, for immunity, bone strength, etc.

Sometimes I get stomach aches or feel bloated after eating certain foods. How can I identify what might be causing these discomforts and make adjustments to my diet?
Hi there, I hope you are well. To identify common food triggers and understand which foods are leading to stomach ache, bloating, and discomfort, here's what you must do. - Prepare meals with less ingredients or avoid mixing too many things together ( say for eg-if you are preparing a dal, use one or two dals at the max). - Maintain food journal in which you can write the foods eaten and it you faced any of the above mentioned symptoms ( stomach ache, bloating, dull pain, etc) Note these foods for at least a week and then, begin eliminating a given food from the diet. - There are chances that spicy food, dairy ( milk, paneer, cheese), excessive gluten, maida or maida based products, fried foods , cruciferous veggies may lead to stomach ache or pain. - Hence, once you've noticed common symptoms with the same foods then, stop consuming it for a week or 10 days, and then, reintroduce it in smaller portions. - Please feel free to book a one-one consult with me for further guidance ✨✨
To identify food triggers for stomach aches or bloating.Keep a food diary to track symptoms after eating. Experiment with eliminating suspected trigger foods one at a time.Gradually reintroduce eliminated foods to pinpoint culprits. Consider consulting a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for guidance.

I often find myself reaching for unhealthy snacks when I'm stressed. What strategies can I use to curb emotional eating?
hina2d
To curb emotional eating, try finding alternative ways to cope with stress such as practicing mindfulness, deep breathing exercises, going for a walk, or engaging in a hobby you enjoy. Keep healthy snacks readily available, and try to identify triggers for emotional eating so you can address them directly. Additionally, consider seeking support from friends, family, or a therapist to develop healthier coping mechanisms.

You can practice meditation to calm yourself down .Also you can switch to healthier snack

Anything that helps with pregnancy nausea apart from ginger and medication??
keep a dry snacks like crackers , cookies or almonds And water on bed side table in the night . And in the morning without getting up, rinse your mouth and have what ever snack you kept in the previous night.. After 10 mints , get out of bed exercising your arms and feet and slowly inhaling and exhaling. Do not brush your teeth immediately. wait for an hour . Use small baby Brushto avoid Gag reflex. Small and frequent diets. solid and liquids not to be taken together , minimum 15 to 30 mints gap. Take Fresh Coconut water ,less of Coffee and Tea. No to oily and spicy stuff. Keep your self busy like read a book,Paint,draw .Do what everakes you happy. Ginger -ale, Ginger cookies , small grated ginger in tea helps in lessening the intensity of nausea. Wear loose , comfortable clothes .
Hi, Acupuncture also works in calming down nervous system and clearing nausea.

My mom keeps telling me about how important eating healthy is, and while I get it, sometimes I just want to indulge in some junk food or sweets with my friends. How do I explain this to her?
Na_Dia19d
Yea it happens. It's difficult to control your eating habits. You can do one thing, keep a day in a week when you can eat your favorite things and have good diet rest of days
Hi there, I hope you are well. Your mom is worried for you and your health and it's absolutely understandable ✨✨ Here's how you can explain it to her - - Sit her down and tell her how you are planning to eat healthy from Monday until Saturday. - Tell her that as per research and nutrition experts, indulgence is okay, once in a while, especially during any one meal of the day on Saturday or Sunday. - You can explain that you will eat healthy the whole day, and then, have a portion of favourite foods. - Promise her that you'll eat in portions and won't go overboard with the same. - It's a phase which shall pass and your mom will understand that you need to have your favourite food/foods once in a while. - Take it as a learning phase, because even my mom would instruct me and my siblings when we were in college. - Don't mind it, and just go with the flow :) I hope this helps, take care ✨

I'm thinking to celebrate my incredible mom, showering her with love, appreciation, and perhaps, breakfast in bed! What are some delicious and thoughtful breakfast ideas to treat Mom to on her special day?
Anonymous22d
If you know what her favorite food is that’s always a winner. Also a pot roast with potato and carrots cooked in the crockpot pot. Or if it’s going to be warm outside like it here you can always fire up the grill throw some chicken or steak on the grill, make some potato salad, coleslaw, bake beans, bake her a cake or pie for dessert. I wish everyone a Happy Mother’s Day! ❤️
Anonymous22d
I think you can start with delicious pan cake and then her favorite lunch etc

I often find myself binge eating or eating till my stomach hurts but it’s nearly always healthy stuff like dried cranberries, nuts, roasted murmura. Is it still bad?
what does your body say after you do that? hint stomach is already hurting?
Anything in excess be it healthy or unhealthy is not good. You should eat in required and small quantities.
