According to my pregnancy app, cherries are rich in Vitamin C and help boost immunity. They also have melatonin which helps with pregnancy insomnia. Just wash them thoroughly before eating.

I am in my 5th month and loving cherries too! Are you guys also having them with black salt, or just plain? They really help with my sour mouth taste.

Cherries are actually super good, yaar! I used to buy them from the local market during my second trimester. Just make sure to spit the seeds out, obviously, and wash them properly.
