Rice is my comfort food and I eat it both times in a day. My saas keeps saying too much chawal is not good for baby. Im 5 months now, how much is ok actually? anyone watching their rice intake?
It is totally normal to worry about your diet, I used to count every single calorie because I was so scared of gestational diabetes. Just try to keep it to one small bowl of rice and load up on dal and veggies instead.
Since I have a history of PCOS, I had to be very careful with white rice to avoid sugar spikes. I switched to brown rice or took very small portions of white rice mixed with lots of fiber. Please check with your doctor once to see what is safe for your body.
I am in my 5th month and I absolutely crave white rice daily, but I'm so scared of gaining too much weight. Do you guys also eat rice for lunch and dinner both, or should I cut down?
My clinical nutritionist at the hospital gave me a customized diet chart where they allowed one cup of cooked rice for lunch only. It's best to ask your hospital's dietician to guide you according to your weight and blood reports.
I eat a moderate portion of rice but only for lunch, and then I make sure to do my doctor-approved 20 minute walk in the evening. Keep yourself active if your gynac has allowed light exercise.
You can definitely eat rice, but balance is key! 🍚 Just have a small bowl with lots of veggies and curd. Don't starve your cravings, but keep it healthy!
