I am craving Chinese food badly but my husband keeps saying avoid all sauces. I dont eat it daily, just maybe with fried rice once in a while. Is occasional soya sauce okay for others here?
I always opted for fresh, whole foods during my pregnancy, so processed items like soy sauce were a big no for me, unless it was a very rare craving. My gynac stressed on nutrient-dense meals and staying active with gentle yoga, which helped a lot. If you're unsure, just have a quick word with your doctor.
Mere ghar pe toh saasuji ne kaha tha ki Chinese food thoda avoid karna better hai due to all the ajinomoto and sauces. But agar bohot craving ho toh thoda sa ghar pe banake use kar sakte ho, not regularly. Better to discuss with your gynac once.
Beta, main toh yahi kahungi ki jo bhi khao, santulit aur shudh ho. Lightly use kar sakte ho kabhi kabhar, but focus on ghar ka khaana. Positive raho aur apne baby ke baare mein socho, sab acha hoga. Always listen to your body and your doctor.
Hey! 😊 Generally, in moderation, it's considered okay. I had it a few times when I craved Chinese food. Just make sure not to go overboard because of the sodium content. Enjoy your cravings, but be mindful! ✨
Soya sauce? Honestly, with twins, I was just trying to get *any* food down! 😅 I think I had it occasionally. As long as you're not chugging it from the bottle, you're probably fine. But seriously, just use sparingly, because high sodium is never fun, especially with all the swelling.
Oh, I totally get wanting specific tastes when morning sickness hits hard. I couldn't even look at half the food! If soy sauce is one of the few things you can tolerate, a little bit occasionally should be okay, but check with your doctor. High sodium can worsen swelling for some, so be careful.
