I had cut down sugar so i was using sweetener in my tea, then realised i never checked if its ok now. Im 12 weeks. Do any of u use sucralose during pregnancy or is it better to avoid completely?
From what my gynac told me, sucralose is one of the sweeteners usually regarded as acceptable in pregnancy in normal amounts. Still she said real food and less processed stuff is better. If you use it daily, just mention it at your checkup.
Most sources say sucralose in limited quantity is okay, but I wouldnt make it a habit. Honestly your doctor is the right person to ask, especially if you have any sugar concerns. They will guide you properly.
During my GD I asked my doctor about sweeteners. She said sucralose is generally considered okay in moderation, but she still wanted me to cut down on overall sweet stuff. So small amounts fine, but dont overdo it, and check with your own doc.
Ha I get the craving for diet drinks, I had them too. From what I read sucralose in small amounts is alright, but I tried to keep it occasional. Treat yourself but dont go overboard yaar.
