dun wry.. as long as u take in moderation, is ok. actu i/m more wry on the sugar level rather den 'cooling'..

when i was in my 1st tri, i was craving for ice lemon tea and everyone tot TEA is a big NONO but my gynae encourage me to drink it, as long as it is not too sweet, take in moderation will do.. and from my mid 2nd tri onwards, i take bubble tea almost daily. very bad and unhealthy habit though.. haha! :tlaugh:

Yes. Agree.

High in sugar. Take in moderation. Too much sugar puts you at risk of gestational diabetes and quick weight gain, which is not healthy nor good for your baby.

If you get gestational diabetes, it is really no fun at all.

As for it being cooling, if you believe in it, then best is to just try to control and give yourself a treat once in a while. :)

yes pineapple tarts contain high level of sugar, thus my gynae told me to take in moderation too. taking a few pieces is okay lahh, but taking the whole bottle to munch.. LOL!

cooked pineapple is ok I think.
but chinese believe preg cannot take pineapple.

as for bubble tea, I think the sago is heaty? cos boiled in brown sugar.
actually bubble tea is high in carbo (cos of the sago) and sugar. if your blood sugar level is high or in danger of Gestational Diabetes, avoid it.

As for me, 1st pregnancy, I try to avoid tea and coffee.
2nd pregnancy, I drink bubble tea and ice tea like nobody's biz.
now breastfeeding and crave for bubble tea everyday.

I drank few times while I was in 2nd, 3rd trim, but always share half cup with hubby coz got caffeine and high sugar so try not to drink too much, ate the pearls too.

Why are pearls cooling? Aren't they made of tapioca flour?
I feel that moderation is the key but it's really up to individual.
I had bubbletea throughout my pregnancy and confinement, thats one of my cravings too :p
