Its so hot these days and i crave chilled water all the time but my saas says it can harm the baby and i should only drink normal water. Is that true? i find it hard to believe honestly.
Arre cold water bilkul chalega yaar, baby ko kuch nahi hota. Actually in Mumbai heat I lived on cool water. Bas agar throat sensitive ho to thoda kam karo, otherwise enjoy.
Totally safe yaar, cold water doesnt harm the baby, thats just an old myth. I drank normal cool water all summer both pregnancies. Just dont drink ice cold if it gives you a sore throat or cough, thats the only reason to avoid.
Beta in our time elders said avoid too cold, mostly because of throat and cold-cough, not because of baby. Normal water at room temp is best. But if you fancy a cool glass in this heat, it wont harm the baby.
Pregnancy summers without cold water? Impossible haha. It does not reach the baby and cool it down, dont worry. Only thing, if your throat is sensitive then chill water might give you cough, so just go a bit easy then.
Yes its safe, cold water has no effect on the baby, thats a common misconception. The only practical thing is some people get throat irritation from very cold water. Drink at whatever temperature feels comfortable to you.
