And you think Lipton is one, This is a blind argument you are having here., you are only talking out of experience which is not enough evidence to clear your point

yeah, lipton is one and so are other tea bags. If you're registered in a federal hospital, you will certainly be told that. Lipton is a no no during pregnancy. Milo is very much preferable when taken in moderation.

Well, Pregnant women experience nausea so vomitting isn't predictably as a result of the food. As for the 'Milo' talk, Milo is a cocoa product and it contains caffeine, which can affect the baby's heart rate and development, the same way it affects us. It even affects the baby more because the baby isn't as developed as we are. Other reasons are what the effect on the mother can cause on the baby as well. The nurses surely had a point.
Note, I am not a doctor, but I was very attentive when my partner was in her term.

Tea also contains caffeine. Personally, I don't think Milo would contain higher level of caffeine than tea. Either way it is better to keep off both

I knew it!

[quote author=abbey621 post=42534496]Quack doctors taking advantage of less informed Nigerians. For milo or hot chocolate to be dangerous to the baby's health, it must be consumed excessively meaning at least 3 cups per day, 7 days a week and 28 days out of the

God bless yu. dat nurse must be auxilliary,lol..

JustHere2Observ:
If I were you, I will change hospital quick. There is nothing wrong in taking Milo, it doesn't affect the mother or baby in anyway. And it doesn't make your baby big, what causes big babies is gestational diabetes, which your wife will be screened for later in pregnancy, that is if she uses a good hospital.
Let her enjoy her Milo, keep a healthy caloric intake and an active lifestyle unless indicated otherwise by her doctor. I'm a registered nurse and mid wife.

i would have passed if not that I saw the qualifications.... You mean she can be taking beverages freely in all the semesters

Thanks for telling her that... she needs to know something before attacking another on half knowledge

Blade21:

i don't need the google for now because I know what I'm saying........ Tell me what and what it can cause her....... Better off, the person that adviced her on it probably knows the advantages outweigh the disadvantage and that's is what matters in health

lol,can u please help me educate @pet4ril on effects of lipton intake on a pregnant woman,and please let her know that lipton is a stimulant because i don tire to tell her wetin truth be but she kips arguing blindly like sje said earlier and she no wan gree use google..

@Adewunmi. If you love your wife very well. I will advise you to tell her instead of taking tea she should take coffee with a cube of sugar. If you don't her to cost you for CS. When labouring... Okay and she always take the coffee every morning as well. Cos when taking much of soft drink, bournvita, peak milk. The weight of the baby will be big inside of her and that's cud bring a big problem for her delivery, and that cud bring about CS. Which may lead to you spending more of your funds and her health too. Vegatable is also okay for her at this period and if she can take whisky or dry gin that's cool as well. Goodluck

babe,i give up on ur mata abeg.. i could go on all day telling you about the effects and you ll"d still tell me ypu know what you are saying.. . Better still,just use google..type in effects of lipton intake on a pregnant woman.. i rest my case.

Basically it's to avoid constipation from the consumption of too much milo and milk.

what is this?? abeg op just filter the advices from here oo.. kos me no undastand whiskey and dry gin mata for pregnant woman oo

RiloKiley:
@adewunmi,
The reason the nurses told her to stop the Milo is probably because they don't want the baby to be too big to push out. Taking excessively sugary stuff during pregnancy is likely to make you have what they call a macrosomic(big) baby. And that could cause your wife to have a c/s instead of normal delivery.
However like someone else said, everything in moderation. Tea has more caffeine than cocoa/Milo, and apart from the fact that it might actually lead to an increase in your wife's blood pressure which would not be good for her or the baby, tea is more likely going to make your wife burn off more fat thus making the baby fine out thin and fugly. You won't like the look of the baby when it comes out. Stick with the Milo but in moderation.

which one again is normal delivery? it's either vaginal delivery or c/s

bigtt76:

Bless u dear,that could be a logical reason ,but wen she takes enoff fruits especially water melon,constipation can be avoided

FuckTheMod:
Olodo doctor So lipton doesn't have caffeine abi

Who is the doctor here? It pays to pay attention.
