Me and hubby want to start trying soon and im confused about the right days in my cycle. matlab which days have better chances? would love to know how u all tracked this.
Since I had a miscarriage before, I was extremely cautious about eating hot foods like dates in the first trimester. I only started eating them in my third trimester after my doctor said it was perfectly safe. Please take your doctor's opinion before eating them.
My mother used to buy high-quality Kimia dates for me during my pregnancy. She would give me 2-3 dates soaked in warm milk every morning, especially in the final months. It gave me so much energy and helped with constipation too.
Haha, honestly any good brand of dates is fine as long as they are soft and tasty! I literally stuffed my Kimia dates with peanut butter to satisfy my sweet tooth. Just don't eat the whole packet at once or you'll get a massive sugar rush!
I was so confused about which dates to buy, like Medjool or Ajwa or Kimia, and if eating too many would cause contractions early! Honestly, just eating 2-3 of any good quality, clean dates daily is fine, but don't overthink it, just ask your doctor if you're worried.
Research actually shows that eating Medjool or Deglet Noor dates in the last 4 weeks of pregnancy can help soften the cervix for labor. My doctor told me I could safely eat 4-6 dates a day starting from my 36th week, as long as my sugar levels were normal.
Oh god, I ate so many Ajwa dates in my ninth month hoping for an easy delivery, but my little monster still took forever to come out! Now I barely get time to eat normal meals, let alone fancy dates. Just eat whatever soft dates you like, they're great for quick energy.
