FAQ: How to handle Constipation during Pregnancy?

It is a common problem during pregnancy, mostly due to the misconceptions about eating for two lives(mother and child) which leads to overeating/frequent eating and then to digestive issues/constipation and cravings. It can be handled through few simple life style adjustments.

1. Mindful Eating Practice

• Get connected with your Hunger and Eat accordingly
• Chew your Food Slowly & Properly 
• Observe the Taste and Swallow when you feel comfortable and calm
• Stop When you start feeling uncomfortable, When the food is no more enjoyable, When you started feeling heavy. 

2. Healthy Diet

• Add more Fruits, Vegetables, Greens & Sprouts in the Diet
• Use Unpolished, Unprocessed Whole Grains, Pulses & Oils
• Avoid Processed/Artificial Foods

3. Observe Elimination and Act

• If you feel constipated/gastric/acidic/unwilling to eat skip a meal
