There is a family function and everyone will have thandai. I am pregnant and not sure about all the ingredients, especially if it has too many spices or nuts. Did anyone drink normal homemade thandai?
Haan, thandai ka na, ingredients pe depend karta hai. Agar sirf badam, saunf, elaichi waali hai, toh maybe thoda chalega. But agar usme khas khas ya aur koi garam cheez hai, toh avoid karna hi behtar hai. Doc se bhi pooch lo ek baar to be sure.
If it's pure, homemade thandai with safe ingredients like almonds, fennel, and basic spices, and no bhang, then maybe a small glass once in a while could be okay. But if you're unsure about any ingredient, or if it's store-bought, it's always safest to consult your gynac. My mom always made sure everything I ate was pure.
Oh, this is a good question! I was just wondering about festive drinks like thandai. My friend who is pregnant said her doctor advised against it if it has poppy seeds or anything that might be 'heating' for the body. It makes me think if it's worth the risk at all.
Thandai can be tricky because of its ingredients. If it has bhang or cannabis, then absolutely NO. Even without that, some spices like poppy seeds (khus khus) are often avoided. My doctor said if it's homemade, simple, and you know exactly what's in it, then a small amount might be okay, but commercially bought ones are best avoided.
Hmm, during my pregnancy, I was advised to be very cautious with anything that might be too heavy or have questionable ingredients. Post C-section too, diet played a big role in recovery. For thandai, I'd suggest checking its ingredients very carefully and asking your doctor first before consumption.
When I was pregnant, I always made it a point to ask my Gynaecologist or even the hospital's nutritionist about specific foods like thandai. It's better to be safe than sorry, especially with something that can have varying ingredients. They will give you the clearest guidance tailored to your health.
