sanskrit
From the first day of pregnancy, a woman should always be cheerful, pure, adorned, dressed in white, and devoted to peaceful and auspicious deities, as well as her Brahmin guru. She should avoid contact with impure, malformed, and foul-smelling objects, should stay away from disturbing conversations, and should not consume dry, stale, overheated, or damp food. She must avoid going outside to empty places, cremation grounds, or under trees that may induce anger and worry. She should also refrain from speaking loudly, which can disturb the fetus, and should not indulge in frequent oil massages or exhausting physical activities. The woman should maintain a comfortable posture while sleeping, with a soft bedding that is not too high or too constricting. She should consume pleasing, light, sweet, oily, and well-prepared food that is easy to digest. This general guideline is applicable throughout her pregnancy.

In particular, during the first, second, and third months of pregnancy, a woman should consume sweet and cool, liquid-like foods. Specifically, in the third month, she should be fed rice with milk. In the fourth month, she can have food mixed with yogurt, in the fifth month, food with milk, and in the sixth month, food with clarified butter. Some suggest that in the fourth month, she should consume a meal made with milk and fresh ghee, along with hearty foods that include wild meat. In the fifth month, she can have food mixed with milk and ghee, and in the sixth month, she should take clarified butter in moderation, along with barley. In the seventh month, she can have clarified butter separately with leaves. This way, the fetus is nourished. In the eighth month, she should consume a mixture of water from the badara fruit, strong herbs, and milk, along with oils, salt, and honey to promote health and purification of the body. After that, she should use sweet, bitter, and astringent milk for anointing, as this helps in a smooth delivery and keeps her free from complications. Therefore, with a nourishing and wholesome diet, she will have a safe and comfortable delivery.

In the ninth month, she should be admitted into the postpartum chamber on an auspicious day. There, a place should be prepared for her made of materials like bilva, nyagrodha, tinduka, and bhallataka, suitable for Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras, in regions with white, red, yellow, or black soil. This chamber should be constructed according to the prescribed numbers, with well-plastered walls, a comfortable bed, and adorned with a proper canopy. It should have a doorway facing east or south, measuring eight hastas in length and four hastas in width, and be endowed with protective and auspicious elements.
