hetal replied. hi Avi, simmi, Ab

thanks for your reply

take care AB replied. well, good balanced diet typically avoids all fatty food. ghee is high calorie, saturated fat think abt. it unless u wish to turn into a balloon ;-)

yesterday i read an article in times of india which said ghee, meat etc. for nursing mom doesn't help at all and is just a myth ;-) that it is good for pregnant or nursing moms.

good diet is the tough diet ;-) ;-) i have been on this since the 2nd month.... how i wish i cud eat some junk...... Simmi replied. Hi Hetal. Like Avi, even I don't know much about ghee and fatty food, however, I did chat with my doc today and she said till the time we eat balanced diet, not get overboard with sugar, to control our sugar level, all food is good in right proposion. So I suggest, have healthy helpings, often rather than having big meals at longer interval, this will reduce heartburn. Hope this helps.
Simmi Avi replied. Hey Hetal, all I know about food at this stage of our pregnancy is that since the baby is supposed to gain about 1/2 pound a week, we need to eat more protein, calcium and iron rich foods... and little bit of fats and carbs wont hurt too... (I dont know too much about ghee or coconuts)
do try keeping foods that contain empty calories to the minimum.
Like Simmi said, we need to get an extra 300 calories in the third trimester..

Sorry for not being much of a help..
