Its summer and i'm craving watermelon like crazy, bohot khaane ka mann hota hai. But my saas keeps saying it can cause cold or somthing. Is it actually fine to eat in pregnancy or should i go easy? pls share.
Watermelon is perfectly fine, my doctor at Cloudnine actually recommended it for morning sickness. But just to be sure, do ask your gynac or the dieticians at your hospital during the next visit.
Haan, watermelon is very good, dear. It helps with swelling and keeps you hydrated. Just eat in limit if you have high sugar, otherwise it is totally safe and yummy!
I totally get why you are asking, we literally overthink everything we eat! Don't worry, watermelon is very safe and cooling. Just have it in normal portions and relax.
Khao khao, watermelon toh bohot accha hai body ke liye. Garmi me toh relief milta hai na ekdum cooling cooling sweet taste se. Ho na, fresh cut hi khana bas.
Honestly this was the only thing I could digest during my first trimester! It gave me so much relief from nausea. Have it cold, it really helps soothe the stomach.
Oh god please eat it! I am surviving on watermelon and cold water in this heavy 3rd trimester heat. Baby feels like a football inside, at least this keeps me cool!
Yes it is safe, but please wash the whole watermelon nicely before cutting it. I used to be so scared of infections, so I only ate freshly cut home watermelon.
Watermelon is amazing for hydration, go for it! I ate loads of it in my third trimester to keep my amniotic fluid levels good. It really helped me stay active.
