I'm facing issues with constipation during my pregnancy, and it's quite uncomfortable. What foods should I eat to help avoid constipation? I want to make sure I'm eating right.
Keep it simple and go for basic ghar ka nuskha. Just make sure you are having a bowl of curd daily, drinking lots of warm water, and eating high-fiber foods like dalia or oats. It works slowly but surely.
My little one is a toddler now, but I still remember how painful constipation was in my third trimester. Honestly, drinking warm water throughout the day and eating a pear or apple daily saved me back then.
I am currently in my 6th month and dealing with this every day. My mom suggested taking a spoon of isabgol with warm milk at night, does anyone here do that? I really need some relief.
First of all, drink at least 3 liters of water daily, otherwise nothing else will work. Eat plenty of high-fiber foods like whole wheat roti, green veggies, and sprouts, and completely avoid maida or processed foods.
Since I had gestational diabetes, I had to be super careful with food and couldn't just eat sweet fruits for fiber. I relied heavily on green leafy vegetables, salads, and cucumber, which kept my blood sugar stable and helped with digestion.
