Can sweets be had during pregnancy?

Question

I have such a sweet tooth and right now the craving is next level lol. But everyone keeps warning me about sugar and gestational diabetes. Like is a small mithai a day ok or should i totally cut it?

Haan thoda chalta hai, just not too much. Cravings are normal.

Oh I lived for my little sweet cravings, a piece of barfi made my day. Enjoy them yaar, just not a whole box at once. Balance with proper meals and you're sorted.

Haan na, thodi mithai toh banti hai. Maine bhi khaayi, bas roz roz nahi. Agar sugar normal hai toh enjoy karo, bas limit me.

Chitra Gowda · Answer

Yes you can, just in moderation. A little mithai now and then is totally fine. Problem is only if you overdo it daily or if you have sugar issues, then go careful.

I'd just gently say keep an eye on the quantity. I loved sweets but after my GD diagnosis I had to cut back. If your sugar tests are normal, a small treat occasionally is fine, just dont make it daily.
