Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Gingersnaps are safe to eat during pregnancy and can help ease mild morning nausea. Real ginger contains gingerol compounds that soothe the stomach, while the molasses and enriched flour provide small amounts of iron. The ACOG recognizes dietary ginger as an effective non-pharmacological remedy for pregnancy-induced nausea. Nibble on a couple of crunchy gingersnaps before getting out of bed to calm early morning queasiness.
