My gynae is against drinking bird nest. No scientific proof is good for baby and and many also says will cause skin allergy problem & respiratory problem. Even if you want to drink, I see ppl only drinking during trimester 3 onwards. Trimester 1 is a delicate period where all the organs are forming. You may want to check with ur gynae to be safe .

Can.. but make sure that the ingredients do not have ginseng and any other chinese herbs. I started consuming the eun yan sang birdnest drinks on 1st tri cos at the packaging it said that is safe for pregnant woman. I took the one with rock sugar only..

Bird’s nest should be ok but not ginseng. Also probably try not to have too much sugar in it. If you have any doubts do check with your gynaecologist.
