It's getting colder now and I love having warm milk or other hot liquids. Is it generally safe to consume hot (not boiling) milks or other warm beverages during pregnancy? Just confirming.
My mother-in-law used to suggest avoiding extremely hot liquids, saying it might increase body heat. But when I asked my gynac, she said warm milk or ragi malt is totally fine as long as it's not boiling. Just check with your doc once if you're worried.
Honestly, I had lukewarm milk and soups a lot during my recovery after my C-section, and even during pregnancy. Just make sure it is not boiling hot because our stomach is already quite sensitive. Drink whatever feels comforting to u but keep it normal temp.
Yes absolutely, just make sure it's not too hot! I used to love drinking warm haldi milk before going to bed. 🥛 It helps with sleep so much! Have u tried warm soups too? 🍲
Actually, hot liquids are fine, but super hot food or drinks can cause acidity yaar. I shifted to lukewarm milk and fresh juices instead. Mumbai heat was already too much, so heavy hot drinks were a big no for me anyway!
Oh god, hot milk actually made me throw up instantly during my first trimester. If you are also feeling nauseous, try waiting till it cools down a bit or switch to thin buttermilk. It's so hard to keep things down, so just drink whatever feels easy on your stomach.
Aww, I totally get why you are asking this, we overthink every little thing when we are pregnant. I remember crying one night because I drank hot cocoa and got so scared! You are doing great, mama, just have it lukewarm and relax.
Having a PCOS history made me super cautious about what I ate and drank. I avoided anything too hot because my digestion was already quite weak back then. Lukewarm drinks were much safer and didn't trigger any bloating for me.
I am in my second trimester now and honestly I still get confused about this! I have been having lukewarm milk but sometimes I crave hot chai so much. Are others also avoiding super hot drinks or is it just me?
