This book is dedicated to a healthy pregnancy and postnatal care. In preparation for the contents, I conducted a deep dive into traditional text on care for pregnancy and the modern healthcare system. Numerous couples and their experiences were documented and researched. A need for a holistic approach and developed care system for the mother-to-be was felt. It should judiciously mix modern as well as traditional practices.

As a parent myself, I was confused as to which piece of information or method was most agreeable as there are myriad and contradictory knowledge systems that exist. As a researcher and with critical reasoning I could narrow it down to a few choices that I have presented here. What is being presented here is an extract of many brainstorming sessions with couples and individuals who understand health from a holistic perspective.

The information shared here has been collated through a balanced approach of ayurvedic text, traditional practices, and modern science while strengthening and utilising the age-old practices.

Although care must be taken to consult a Vaidya before administering any suggested Ayurvedic medicine mentioned in the book. It needs the wisdom of observation to understand what would work for whom.

Care is given to avoid mentioning any negative practices that could result in pregnant women suffer for life, It is a proposal to practice what is naturally acceptable and doable. It may appear challenging to individuals obsessed with modernity but in retrospect it is just a set of guidelines towards a balanced lifestyle for a healthier future of a family. I can only request you to observe the logic presented with faith and trust.

Here, right at the beginning I must also mention the fact that the process of bringing a new life into the world can be self-healing for the mother-to-be. This phase is also a time when the body and the mind are in a natural process of overhaul, and therefore a unique opportunity to respect life. Please make the best tee of this opportunity.

Journey of raising a life within oneself is a special one with several unique Experiences. Just like life, this journey too has its share of happiness and challenges. This book will help you to enhance your experiences of this beautiful journey for the months of pregnancy and beyond. It is my hope, that within them, you too will find an opportunity to truly embrace the beauty within you and develop tools to enjoy it.
