I have a sweet tooth and trying to cut down sugar, so thinking of using those sugar free tablets in tea. But not sure if artificial sweetener is safe for baccha. 16 weeks. Anyone using it?
Arre, why go for chemical sugars when the baby wants real sweetness? If you must, ask your doctor, but otherwise just steal a small bite of normal kheer and enjoy life, haha!
Oh, when I had bad morning sickness, even the smell of artificial sweeteners made me throw up! I found that eating small pieces of apple or a date helped with cravings much better. Try to stick to natural sugars.
My doctor explained that while some sweeteners like sucralose are generally considered safe, it is best to avoid artificial sugar-free products in pregnancy. They can affect gut health, so natural options are always better.
I used to check the ingredients of literally everything because I was so scared of chemicals hurting the baby! I would say stay away from sugar-free products and just ask your gynac for a safe diet plan.
Having thyroid made me super careful about my diet and sugars. It is always best to ask your doctor before replacing normal sugar with sugar-free brands, as some chemicals might not suit your body right now.
Honestly, I avoided artificial sweeteners completely and just stayed active to keep my sugars in control till my normal delivery. Try using natural things like dates or a tiny bit of jaggery instead if you have a sweet tooth.
