My constipation is really bad these days and a friend suggested prunes. But im not sure if it's safe in pregnancy or how much to have. Anyone added these to their diet? Thoda confused so asking.
Oh yes, go ahead and have them! Don't stress too much about what to eat and what not to, most dry fruits like prunes are super safe. They will really help if your stomach is feeling a bit heavy.
I am in my third trimester and prunes are literally keeping my bowel movements alive! Pregnancy constipation is no joke, so trust me, eat a couple of them daily. Just don't overdo it unless you want to spend your day in the loo!
I asked my doctor about this because of my severe bloating, and she said prunes are rich in fiber and sorbitol, which naturally help soften stools. Having 3 to 4 prunes daily is perfectly safe and highly recommended for digestive health.
With two babies pushing down on my intestines, prunes were my absolute best friends! They work like a charm for constipation. Just start with two a day, or your stomach might get too active!
Yes dear, you can definitely eat prunes, they are actually very good for you. They help relieve constipation which is so common during pregnancy. Just eat 2-3 a day and make sure you drink plenty of water too.
I remember struggling with terrible constipation during my pregnancy years back. Prunes were a lifesaver for me then, and even now I keep them handy for my toddler. Definitely add them to your daily routine!
I have heard from my aunts that prunes are very healthy for digestion. They are natural and safe to eat during this time. Just have a few with your breakfast.
