Ketones showed up in my urine report and gynac said its bcoz im not eating enough due to vomiting. Morning sickness is too much yaar, kuch andar tikta hi nahi. How do I bring it down? Anyone faced same?
This often happens due to dehydration or if you're not eating enough carbs regularly. Try to drink more fluids, especially plain water and coconut water. Also, make sure you're having small, frequent meals throughout the day so your body isn't breaking down fats for energy.
Oh god, ketones? I swear my doc mentioned something about it when I was pregnant, but honestly, my brain is fried from lack of sleep now, haha. Just drink loads of water na? Like, seriously, keep a bottle with u always. And maybe mention it to your gynac, just to be sure.
Please don't take this lightly. I had some complications during my pregnancy, and doctors always told me to report anything unusual. Ketones can be a sign of something that needs medical attention. Call your gynac ASAP, they will guide you best.
Ketones usually mean you're either not drinking enough water or not eating enough, especially carbs. Just focus on staying super hydrated, lots of water, nimbu pani. And eat small, frequent meals, don't let yourself go too long without food. If it's persistent, obviously tell your doctor.
Hey! Many apps have diet trackers, you can use one to see if your carb intake is sufficient or if you're missing meals. Sometimes ketones come up if you're not eating enough or are dehydrated. But definitely talk to your gynac too, they might want to monitor it closely.
