Im 6 months and honestly been eating a lot of salty namkeen and pickle lately, cant control. My feet look slightly puffy. Does too much salt actually affect baby or my BP? just want to know.
As a working mom, I used to rely on ready-to-eat meals, but they are packed with sodium which spikes BP. Shift to homemade meals with low salt to avoid swelling, it saves a lot of medical complications later.
High sodium will cause serious water retention and can shoot up your blood pressure. Avoid pickles, papad, and outside food. Check your BP regularly and eat fresh ghar ka khana.
Actually, the senior dietician at my hospital specifically warned me about sodium intake. High salt can lead to gestational hypertension, so they advised me to strictly limit processed food and get BP checked at every visit.
Mujhe nausea ke waqt salty chips khane ka bohot mann karta tha, but please control karo. High sodium se extreme swelling ho jati hai pairon me aur BP badhne ka darr rehta hai.
Achaar and chips cravings are so real, but we have to be super careful! High sodium is not good for BP, so I try to balance my salty snacks with lots of water throughout the day.
