My mom keeps giving me dates every morning saying it's good for the baby and for easy delivery. Im 5 months now and honestly I love them but eating 4-5 daily, is that too much? Just want to be sure it's actually fine.
My amma fed me dates almost daily in my last trimester, said it helps strength. I trusted both her and my doctor on this. Just keep it moderate and youre good.
My gynac actually recommended dates in the last few weeks, she said some studies suggest they may help with labour. I had 3-4 daily from around 36 weeks. Great for iron too. But quantity matters so dont overdo.
Dates are good but I had to be careful because of my sugar levels, they are quite sweet. My doctor allowed me a couple a day only. So if you dont have GD enjoy them, otherwise check your limit.
Beta dates are wonderful, in our family we always gave khajoor to pregnant ladies. They give good iron and energy. Just have 2-3 a day, not a whole bowl, and if you have sugar issues then ask your doctor first.
