Candy - ok or not?
I read in some other posts where people said they were bad for eating candy? Why is that? Are we not allowed to have candy? I have the occassional sweet tart or bottle cap. Should I not be having these?

I always say everything in moderation.
Candy is allowed, sometimes you just can't help letting that sweet tooth win

Re: Candy - ok or not?
candy is fine!!!!! Obviously, I wouldn't eat an excessive amount, like bags and bags of it!! Its bad to eat if your diagnosed w/GD b/c that means the baby is getting overloaded w/sugar b/c your body isn't producing enough insulin to remove the sugar from your blood.

There is nothing wrong with eating candy. So many people have different and their own opinions of what you can/can't eat during pregnancy. If we listened to everything..we would be cooped up in a bubble drinking water / milk and eating nothing but salad the entire time.
I have candy, soda, I don't deny myself anything...I just don't over do it.

I thought it was ok. I don't eat much of it but sometimes I need the sweet. This candy is leftover from Halloween so I obviously don't indulge in it much.

The candy itself isn't harmful unless you aren't otherwise eating good foods, or if you have GD.

Re: Candy - ok or not?
My dr. encouraged candy when I was pregnant...anything to keep my blood sugar from dropping. She applauded me for eating candy when the shakes hit! Obviously you shouldn't eat a ton of candy...but in moderation you'll be just fine.
