My mom keeps soaking almonds for me every morning saying its good for the baby brain. Im 3 months along and just curious if it actually helps or its just a old belief. How many do u all eat in a day?
Haan beta, almonds are very good, in our family we always soaked a few overnight and ate them in the morning. They are full of good nutrients for you and baby. Just a handful daily is enough, no need to overdo it.
My mother in law insisted on soaked almonds every morning and I happily had them. They are healthy and my gynac had no issue with it. A small handful is the right amount.
Almonds are actually a good snack, they don't spike sugar like sweet foods. They helped me stay full between meals when I was managing my diabetes. Just keep the portion moderate as they are calorie dense.
