There may not be a standard recommendation for the amount of sugar you should consume during pregnancy. However, the amount of sugar you should consume per day will depend on your metabolism, blood sugar level, and weight. Generally, you should not consume more than 25 grams of sugar per day.

In addition, pregnant mothers should be careful about eating sweet fruits or fruits with high sugar content, such as bananas, ripe mangoes, watermelons, UFABET, and grapes. If you want to eat these fruits, you should eat them fresh in limited quantities and avoid process forms such as jams and fruit juices because they may have added sugar.
