I enjoy snacking on different types of nuts, like almonds and walnuts. Are nuts generally considered good to eat during pregnancy, or are there any specific ones I should avoid?
I'm currently preparing my body for pregnancy and actually started eating soaked almonds daily. It's so good to know they are safe and healthy to continue even after conceiving!
They are great, but if u have thyroid issues like I did, just keep a check on your weight gain and regular thyroid tests. My doctor suggested a handful of nuts daily but said to keep tracking my reports every month to adjust my diet and medication.
Eat them for sure, u need all the brain power u can get before sleepless nights start! I survived on cashews and almonds because they were so easy to grab with one hand while exhausted. Just wash them down with lots of water.
Definitely! I used to have a mix of almonds, pistachios, and walnuts daily, and they really helped keep my energy levels up. It's a great snack option that keeps u full and healthy.
Nuts are actually super healthy because they have good fats and protein! My doctor told me to soak almonds and walnuts overnight to make them easier to digest and prevent body heat. She just said to avoid salted or fried ones.
Yes, dear, nuts like walnuts and almonds are highly recommended as they have folic acid which is so important for development. I know how delicate and stressful this journey can be, so just eat a handful of soaked nuts every morning to nourish your little miracle.
