I feel low energy bohot jaldi these days, especially afternoon mein. Was thinking of mixing some glucose powder in water. Is that ok in pregnancy or better to avoid? pls share.
I always feel it is best to check with your gynac before adding anything like glucose powder to your diet. Some of us have borderline sugar issues during pregnancy without even realizing. Better safe than sorry, na?
If your doc has allowed you to do light prenatal yoga or walking, you might feel a bit tired after. Instead of glucose water, I usually prefer coconut water as a natural energy booster. But if you really want glucose, ask your doctor first.
Mere saath bhi same situation thi! I used to get so dizzy in my 5th month and panicked thinking if glucose is safe or not. Actually it is totally normal to have a glass of Glucon-D occasionally when u feel low on energy.
Arre don't stress too much about small things, dear! If you are craving a little sweet or feeling drained, a spoon of glucose in water is completely fine. Just balance it out and stay happy!
Honestly, I used to track my sugar levels on my Mylo app daily during my second trimester. If you don't have gestational diabetes, a little glucose water when you feel weak is perfectly fine. Just don't overdo it because too much sugar is not good for the baby.
Honestly, check your HbA1c and fasting sugar levels first. If your reports are normal, occasionally having glucose is fine, but don't make it a daily habit. We get enough carbs from our normal ghar ka khana anyway.
Oh those exhausted pregnancy days, I still remember how weak I used to feel. I used to have a cold glass of glucose water sometimes and it really saved me. Your body is doing so much hard work, so treat yourself gently.
Beta, feel free to have a little if you are feeling too dehydrated or tired in this heat. Just keep it mild, haan. Don't take it daily without telling your gynac, she knows your blood reports best.
