Many nutrients are needed
According to experts, a woman needs a lot of nutrients during pregnancy, because along with the needs of her body, the development of the child also depends on them. During Roza, neither eat nor drink anything for a long time.
At the same time, during the month of Ramadan, the heat is also gaining momentum, due to this there is a fear of dehydration in the body and the fast is not for one day but for a month. In such a situation, fasting for a pregnant woman can be dangerous not only for her but also for her unborn child.
– Especially, if the woman is in her first trimester, then the risk of the condition worsening is higher. Therefore, not keeping it is safe for the health of you and the child and even if you have to keep fast, then first consult a specialist about it and follow his instructions.
