My saas keeps telling me to have gond katira in milk, says its good for body during pregnancy. But I wanted to check first because im 2nd trimester. Did anyone take it na? Is it actually safe?
During my IVF pregnancy, I was so careful that I didn't eat anything traditional without checking with my clinic first. Gond katira is known to be very cooling, but every pregnancy is unique and fragile. Please check with your doctor before adding it to your diet.
Oh, please be careful with gond katira. While people say it's good for heat, I always worried if it would cause stomach issues or affect the baby. If you do decide to have it, make sure it is soaked fully and don't have too much of it.
I've been wanting to try gond katira to beat this heat, but I'm so scared of trying traditional foods during my second trimester. Did any of you eat it regularly, and did your doctor say it's completely safe for the baby?
Haan na, garmiyon mein toh gond katira bohot achha lagta hai, it keeps the body cool. But pregnancy mein har cheez thoda limit mein khana chahiye. I had it sometimes but always asked my doctor first.
My MIL actually gave me Gond Katira soaked in milk during the hot months because she said it cools the stomach. But she was also very strict about the quantity and only gave me a small spoonful. Always check with your doctor once to be completely sure.
Since I had thyroid issues and a very sensitive system, I avoided taking any traditional cooling agents without running it by my doctor first. It's always best to ask your gynac during your regular follow-up if your body can handle it, especially since it can cause constipation.
I totally understand wanting something cool to drink when your body temperature feels so high during pregnancy. I had a little bit of gond katira in my shakes and it really helped my acidity. But definitely consult your gynac first to feel completely at ease.
I totally understand how difficult it is to manage the body heat during these beautiful nine months. Gond katira is very soothing, but please protect your precious little one by asking your doctor first. Take care of yourself, dear!
