My weight gain is on the lower side and someone suggested ensure for extra nutrition. Dont know if its meant for pregnant women though. Pls share if you took it.
These tins are pricey and often not needed if you eat well. Dal, eggs, milk, paneer, fruits give you plenty. If doctor says you're low on something then take what she suggests.
Don't just start it on your own. In pregnancy they usually give specific maternal supplements, not regular Ensure. Ask your doctor, she'll tell you the right one if you even need it.
Ensure is a general adult supplement, not really made for pregnancy. There are proper maternal protein powders your doctor can suggest instead. Honestly ask your gynac before adding any drink like this.
It's not harmful as such but it's not designed for pregnancy nutrition. If your diet is good you may not need it at all. Best to let your doctor decide based on your reports.
