It means finding the balance between enjoyment and health. From the glittering lights of Diwali to the aromatic feasts of Navratri, women<\/a> can participate fully while keeping both themselves and their babies safe.<\/p>\n

Listen to Your Body, Savour Every Bite<\/h4>\n

She suggests that smaller portions and savouring each bite are the healthiest way to indulge.<\/p>\n
