Patient's question:
I am a pregnant mother-to-be, and I am currently 27 weeks pregnant. Since becoming pregnant, I have been particularly fond of sweet foods. My friend told me that if you crave sweet foods during pregnancy, you are more likely to have a daughter. Is this true?Doctor's answer:
After pregnancy, a woman's taste preferences vary. Some may prefer sour, while others may prefer sweet. These preferences have no relation to the gender of the child. However, during pregnancy, it is important to avoid excessive consumption of sweet foods, as this can easily lead to high blood sugar levels. Women should pay close attention to a balanced and reasonable diet during pregnancy, ensuring a wide variety of foods are consumed, including vegetables, fruits, meats, eggs, and dairy products, in appropriate amounts.
