Go for it! I lived on gobi parathas during my 2nd trimester, honestly it was my ultimate comfort food.

Eating it is absolutely fine but always home-cooked and hot. If you ever feel severe stomach pain or gas after eating, consult your doctor.

Beta, cauliflower can cause thoda gas, so add some hing (asafoetida) and ginger while cooking. It will digest easily.
