My saas keeps giving me khajoor everyday saying its good for delivery. Im only in first trimester though so not sure if its ok to eat daily right now. Anyone know if dates are fine this early?
Dates are rich in iron but they also have high sugar content and warm properties. It's always best to check with your gynac once, because they know your exact pregnancy complications and history.
Be careful with dates if you have high blood sugar or gestational diabetes like I did. They are packed with natural sugar and can spike your levels instantly. Check your sugar reports before eating them daily.
They are healthy, but please ask your doctor before eating them regularly. I had preterm labor scare, and my doctor told me to avoid things that can trigger uterine contractions too early. Better safe than sorry.
Dates are a great budget-friendly way to keep iron levels up instead of buying expensive organic supplements. I bought them in bulk from wholesale market. Just keep an eye on your regular gestational diabetes test costs.
I ate dates throughout my pregnancy and they really helped my iron levels. But since I had thyroid issues, I made sure to get my monthly blood tests done to keep overall health in check. Keep your doc updated about your diet.
I am no expert, but personally I ate 2-3 dates daily in my second and third trimesters. It satisfied my sweet cravings and helped with constipation. But everyone's body is different, so do what feels right for u.
I was extremely scared of eating anything 'hot' like dates in my first trimester because of my past loss. I only started having them in my late second trimester after my doctor reassured me. Just go slow and see how your body feels.
Yes dear, you can definitely eat them. I used to have 2-3 dates with warm milk every night in my third trimester. It really helped with my constipation and gave me good stamina during my breastfeeding days later.
Aare I panicked so much in my first trimester when my MIL gave me dates, thinking it causes miscarriage! But my doctor told me it's totally safe and normal to eat them in moderation. So relax, 1 or 2 daily is fine.
God has made these natural foods to nourish us during this beautiful journey. Have a couple of dates with a positive mind, they give good strength. Stay happy and take care of yourself.
I am eating 6 dates a day right now in my 9th month because some study said it makes labor easier! Honestly, I am so tired of this heavy belly, I will eat anything if it helps baby pop out faster, haha.
Khau shakte, dates are actually very good for iron levels ho na. Mera toh sugar level normal tha toh main roz khati thi. Bas excessive mat khana thoda heat generate karta hai body mein.
