Can i drink cold water during 8th month of pregnancy?
Its so hot here and I just want chilled water all day. But my saas says thanda paani not good for baby in last months. Is there any truth to this ya just an old wives thing?
Direct fridge water can cause throat irritation. Try mixing half fridge water and half normal pot water. It gives that cool feeling without being freezing cold.
You can drink it, but don't make it too chilled as you might catch a cold or cough. I had a cough close to my C-section delivery date and it was very painful to cough after surgery, so better to be safe.
I have heard elders say not to drink cold water, but is it actually bad? Honestly, in this heat, a cold glass of water sounds like heaven. I hope it's allowed!
I drank cold water throughout my 8th and 9th month because of constant body heat. Nothing happened to my baby! Just make sure it is clean, filtered water.
I think normal matka water is safer and very refreshing too. My bhabhi also used to avoid direct fridge water during her late pregnancy to stay safe from throat infections.
Cold water is fine, but if you have a sensitive throat, it's best to avoid very chilled water. If you get a fever or cough, it complicates things, so check with your gynac once if you are prone to throat infections.
