HC in Pregnancy: Can Ayurveda Help Maintain a Healthy Balance? - #16280

I’m currently 24 weeks pregnant, and at my last check-up, my doctor mentioned something about my HC in pregnancy levels being slightly outside the normal range. I was a little confused because I haven’t had any major complications so far, and my baby’s growth is on track. The doctor didn’t seem too concerned but told me they’ll monitor it in the next few weeks. I started reading about HC in pregnancy, and now I’m a little worried. From what I understand, it plays a role in fetal development, but if it’s too high or too low, it could indicate potential risks. But what exactly causes HC in pregnancy to fluctuate? Is it something related to diet, stress, or hormonal imbalances? I’ve been eating healthy (or at least trying), but my digestion has been off lately, and I do feel more tired than usual. Could that be related? I’m really interested in Ayurveda because I want to support my pregnancy in a natural way. Are there specific Ayurvedic herbs or practices that help regulate HC in pregnancy and promote overall balance? I’ve been taking saffron milk occasionally and started doing gentle prenatal yoga, but is there anything else I should be doing to support my body? Also, I’ve heard that Ayurveda focuses a lot on digestion during pregnancy. Could poor digestion affect HC in pregnancy? My stomach feels heavy after meals, and I get bloated pretty often. Are there Ayurvedic remedies that are safe to take while pregnant to help with this? Has anyone else had irregular HC in pregnancy levels and managed it naturally? Should I be concerned, or is it normal for it to fluctuate? I’d love to hear from anyone who has used Ayurveda during pregnancy and what worked best for them.
