i get such bad cravings for bread, naan, all the maida stuff these days. now feeling guilty after eating. is it actually bad in pregnancy ya thoda chalta hai? 5 months going on.
Dear, try to eat fresh, wholesome foods as they keep your mind and body pure. A little maida won't harm, but home-cooked grains will give you and the baby better energy. Stay positive and take care.
Honestly, eating too much maida outside can lead to stomach infections, which means expensive doctor visits and medicines. It's much better and cheaper to make simple wheat-based snacks at home.
I've been trying to switch to wheat alternatives but sometimes the maida cravings are just too strong. Is it okay if we have it once a week, or does it directly affect the digestion?
When you've faced a loss, you want to be extremely careful with everything. While a little maida occasionally is medically fine, eating fresh, home-cooked wheat or millet foods will give you more peace of mind.
My pregnancy tracker flagged maida as a 'limit' food because it can worsen constipation, which is already a major issue during pregnancy. I try to balance it by eating lots of fiber and drinking water if I ever have it.
Listen, don't stress too much about eating a little maida! Having a slice of pizza or momos once in a while is totally fine. Just drink lots of water so you don't get constipated.
I felt so much guilt during my first trimester because I could only digest white bread and pasta. But my doctor reassured me that surviving the nausea is what matters most. Just eat what you can digest, mama.
I'm in my 20th week and had some noodles yesterday, now I'm feeling so guilty. Is anyone else also struggling to completely avoid junk food? I find it so hard to eat only healthy things.
Ghar pe mummy aur saas humesha bolte hain ki maida pet mein chipak jata hai, so they preferred whole wheat rotis. But occasionally when I craved samosas, they would make them at home with fresh oil. Try to limit it.
With my PCOS, I had to watch my refined carb intake very closely to avoid insulin spikes. I completely avoided maida and opted for oats or ragi instead. It's better to be cautious, but don't stress if you have a little bit.
Having gone through IVF, I know how we overthink every single bite of food to keep the baby safe. Eating maida occasionally in small amounts is fine, but try to avoid it regularly as it can cause constipation. Be very gentle with yourself.
Occasional consumption of maida is absolutely fine, but it has a high glycemic index and zero fiber. It's best to discuss your diet with your gynac, especially to rule out gestational diabetes risks.
