Everyone keeps telling me khajoor khao, its good for delivery and iron. Im in my 3rd trimester so started eating but not sure kitne daily is ok. Dont want to overdo it. How many do u all eat?
Oh, dates are often suggested, especially towards the end of pregnancy for an easier delivery, right? I remember my MIL used to give me some. It's so lovely that you're thinking about natural ways to prepare your body. Just remember to check with your doctor about the exact number, as everyone's body is different.
Most doctors recommend around 6 dates a day from week 36 onwards. It's believed to help with cervical ripening. But this is not a one-size-fits-all thing, especially if you have gestational diabetes or are generally sensitive to sugar. So, ask your doctor for their specific advice for you.
This is such a good question! I've been wondering the same thing. My friends told me dates are good, but I'm not sure how many is too many. I guess it's always safest to ask our gynac, right? I'll probably ask mine at my next appointment.
My doctor actually recommended 6 dates a day, but only in the last month of pregnancy, not before. She said studies show it can help ripen the cervix and potentially reduce labor time. However, she also cautioned against it if there was any risk of gestational diabetes, so please check your specific health situation with your gynac first.
Dates are often suggested, but because of my PCOS history, I was very careful with my sugar intake. My doctor advised me to have them sparingly, maybe 2-3 a day, and only in the very last few weeks. It's really important to discuss this with your gynac, especially if you have any pre-existing conditions or are at risk for gestational diabetes.
I ate dates in my last trimester, maybe 3-4 a day, because I heard it helps with labor. My baby is a healthy toddler now. But definitely ask your gynac, especially if you have any sugar concerns. They'll tell you what's right for your body.
Ho na, dates toh bahut acche hote hai pregnancy mein. Lekin kitne khane chahiye, woh toh doctor hi bata sakte hai aapko. Har kisi ki body alag hoti hai aur sugar levels bhi. So, pls apne gynac se baat kar lo, they will guide you best.
