Honestly pasta is the only thing i feel like eating in this first trimester, everything else makes me nauseous. But MIL keeps saying maida is not good. Is it okay to have it few times a week?
Because of my PCOS, I had to watch my blood sugar levels closely during pregnancy. White pasta can cause sudden sugar spikes, so I switched to whole wheat or suji pasta with lots of veggies. Try doing that, it's safer and nutritious.
Hey, don't stress too much about eating pasta! Just eat a small portion, maybe choose wheat pasta and load it with veggies. Pregnancy is too short to skip your cravings completely!
Your body is working so hard to grow a whole human, please don't feel guilty about eating a little pasta! Just eat what makes u happy right now, but yes, try to balance it with healthy home food too.
I literally cried once because I ate a big bowl of cheesy pasta and thought I ruined my diet! Later my doc laughed and said small cravings are totally fine. Don't worry, just don't make it an everyday habit.
Omg I remember craving white sauce pasta so much but then I googled and got terrified about maida and food poisoning! Honestly, if it is made fresh at home with good veggies, it should be fine. Just make sure the cheese is pasteurized.
During my pregnancy, I used to make red sauce pasta at home with wheat pasta and added boiled chicken for protein. It kept my energy up and satisfied my cravings without making me feel bloated. It's safe in moderation.
