Brief Answer:
Honey is safe in pregnancy unless you are gestational diabetic.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to ATD for an opinion,
there is actually no real need to be worried after eating UNIBICS biscuits even if it contains honey. As you are already in your late second trimester and placentation is already complete so there is no chance of it harming the baby in any ways.
Honey is not contraindicated in pregnancy at all, but especially in gestational diabetic women , the use is restricted due to increasing sugar levels.
Please do not worry 3 biscuits will not harm you in any way.

Brief Answer:
answered.
Detailed Answer:
Avoid in pregnancy and or if one is breast-feeding, due to a lack of available scientific evidence. Avoid in individuals with known allergy or hypersensitivity to hyacinth bean.
So, in view of incomplete evidences, its difficult to comment in this regards.

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Please don't worry.
I don't think one bowl will harm your child now as the critical period remained till 14th week and you are well ahead in your 28th week of gestation. So if you are asymptomatic as of now, so it would not harm your child as well, but please avoid in future.
