Pregnancy is a physiological event that occurs naturally in a woman's life. Because Garbha (the foetus) is fully reliant on the mother for sustenance and growth, food plays a crucial role in this situation. Food consumed by pregnant women serves a variety of purposes, including nourishing the mother's body, producing milk, and providing nutrition to the foetus. The Ahara - Vihara that pregnant women follow in order to maintain all of their body processes regular and healthy are referred to as Paricharya. Ayurveda's nine-month diet is a one-of-a-kind concept. It alters in response to the foetus's development in the womb while also ensuring the mother's health. Our traditional literature outlines a detailed and complete routine for the Garbhini to have a safe pregnancy and a healthy baby
