Pregnancy period is believed to be a blissful period by Ayurveda, not only for pregnant women but also for her husband and the whole family.

The treatment given during pregnancy period is called 'Masanumasiki chikitsa' in Ayurveda. 'Masanumasiki' means pregnancy month by month and 'chikitsa' is treatment.

As such, the mother should eat, see, touch, hear, and smell everything nourishing so that she could gain a healthy pregnancy and the child may achieve physical, emotional and mental growth properly. Ayurveda prescribes, balanced pregnancy diet in form of 'sattvik food,' 'abhyanga' and other body massage appropriate during pregnancy period, mild yogic pregnancy exercise, meditation, and even herbs for pregnancy complications.
