I usually drink warm lemon honey when my throat feels dry. Now in pregnancy I am checking everything before taking it. Has anyone had this in morning or for cough?
At my hospital, they always emphasized clearing everything, even natural remedies like lemon and honey, with the doctor or a hospital nutritionist. Certain types of honey might not be recommended. Just a quick call to your gynac's office should clarify if it's okay for *your* specific case and if there are any restrictions.
Mere ghar pe toh sab bolte the nimbu paani aur shahed bahut acha hota hai. Agar halki khasi ya gale mein kharash ho, toh maine liya tha. Thoda garam paani mein, ek chamach shahed aur aadha nimbu. It really helped with my sore throat. But not every day, just when needed for relief, and in small amounts.
When I was pregnant, my gynac actually suggested lemon and honey water for my morning sickness. Not too much, just a small glass in the morning. It really helped settle my stomach sometimes. I delivered a healthy baby, so I think it's mostly safe, but do ask your own doc about your specific health needs, just to be sure.
Yes, usually lemon and honey are fine. The key is in the quantity and ensuring the honey is pasteurized, not raw. Raw honey is generally advised against due to a very low risk of botulism. If it's a regular supermarket honey and you take it for mild symptoms like a sore throat or nausea, it should be okay. But confirm with your doc.
I'm very careful about what I put into my body, just like I was about my exercise routine. For small things like a mild sore throat, I used to have a little bit of lemon water with honey, but only after getting a clear go-ahead from my doctor. It's about moderation and listening to your body, and your doc, always.
Oh, I felt so nauseous in my first trimester, and I really wanted to try everything natural! Lemon and honey felt like a soothing remedy. I did take it sometimes for my sore throat or mild cough, but in moderation. I always checked with my gynac first though, just to be super safe with anything I consumed.
Generally, lemon and honey in moderation are considered safe during pregnancy, especially if you use pasteurized honey. Many people take it for colds or morning sickness. But please don't overdo it. If you have gestational diabetes or any other medical condition, it's always smart to ask your doctor once before taking it regularly.
I'm in my second trimester, and I sometimes feel like having something warm with lemon and honey for a bit of comfort. I'm so worried about everything I eat or drink though. Did anyone else take it? My MIL says it's totally safe, but I want to be super sure before I try it regularly.
