My MIL keeps giving me barley water saying it's good for swelling and all. I'm 6 months now and honestly not sure if it's safe to have daily. Anyone here had barley water during pregnancy?
Haanji, many women find barley beneficial during pregnancy, especially for hydration and its fiber content. It's gentle on the system, which is important when you're being so careful with everything. Always good to check with your doc too, just to be sure it suits you.
Oh absolutely! I delivered just a few months back and my doc had suggested barley water actually. It's so hydrating and helps with swelling too, especially in the third trimester. I felt really good having it, like it was helping my body.
Barley is fine, actually it's very good. It helps with water retention and can be good for your digestive system. Just don't overdo it, everything in moderation. You can have it as water or add it to your soups.
Haan haan, barley is very good, beta. Mere ghar pe toh sab bolte the ki piyo garmiyon mein. It keeps you cool and hydrates you properly. Achi cheez hai, try karke dekho, it won't harm you for sure.
Hey! Haan, barley is generally considered good. My pregnancy app actually had an article on it, saying it's full of fiber and can help with constipation which is so common. Just make sure it's cooked well and you're not allergic to anything.
Girl, at this point, anything that's not another piece of plain toast is good, haha! I've been told barley water is super good for staying hydrated and has lots of good stuff. Maybe I should finally try it instead of just thinking about it. So tired these days!
