Garbhasanskar (Marathi) describes a healthy regimen for a pregnant woman to ensure a safe childbirth and a healthy child.

Summary Of The Book

Garbhasanskar (Marathi) is a set of special dietary, physical and mental practices prescribed for pregnant women, in Ayurveda. These were traditional practices that ensured the health of the woman and child, and proper growth and development of the child in the womb.

The author is an Ayurvedic practitioner who has studied these methods. The book contains details of the proper diet that should be followed, the suggestions for a lifestyle that will foster the healthy development of the fetus. It also contains suggestions for the mental discipline and thought processes of the mother-to-be.

Garbhasanskar (Marathi) also suggests the medicines that the woman should take during each month of her pregnancy. This book provides good advice for expectant parents, especially relevant during these times, as nuclear families mean there are not many elders to constantly monitor the health of the woman and provide advice.
