Getting such bad cravings for noodles lately, second trimester mein appetite is all over the place. I know maggi type stuff is junk but ek baar in a while chalega na? Just dont want to do anything that harms the baccha.
Same here, I also get major cravings for Yippee in the evening! Is it okay if we eat it once or twice a week, or should we strictly limit it? I try to add veggies, but sometimes I just want the plain masala flavor.
Oh god, I am in my third trimester now and honestly, some days I am just too tired to stand and cook, so Yippee is my savior! I just add some boiled peas to pretend it's a healthy meal, haha.
I know those pregnancy cravings can be so hard to ignore, and it is absolutely okay to pamper yourself sometimes! You can definitely have Yippee occasionally, just try to eat fresh home food mostly.
Actually, my tracking app said occasional instant noodles are fine when you have strong cravings. Just add some chopped carrots, peas, or an egg to make it a bit healthy, but don't make it a daily habit!
When I asked my hospital dietitian about instant noodles, she said they are fine for occasional cravings but have zero nutrition and high sodium. She suggested adding fresh veggies to it if I really want to eat it. So yeah, once in a while is fine!
Honestly, because of my PCOS history, I tried to stay away from processed maida during my pregnancy. Having Yippee once in a while is totally fine for your cravings, but just keep it as a rare treat, sweetie.
I had thyroid during my pregnancy, so my doctor told me to closely monitor my processed food intake. It's okay to satisfy your craving with Yippee noodles sometimes, but make sure you are regular with your doctor visits and checkups.
