I love pineapple but my mom suddenly told me to avoid it now that im pregnant, said it can be harmful. Im in my first trimester. Is this true or just one of those old beliefs?
The general view is moderate amounts are fine and the worry is mainly about eating a lot of it. Honestly the safest is to ask your own doctor since they know your specific case. I kept it occasional and had no trouble.
Beta, elders always say avoid too much pineapple in early pregnancy. A little here and there is okay, but dont drink big glasses daily. To be safe, just ask your gynac since every pregnancy is different.
A small amount is generally fine, the scary stories are about eating it in huge quantity. I had some occasionally with no issue. But if you have any risk or a sensitive pregnancy, better confirm with doctor.
I was craving all the fruits haha. Had a little pineapple sometimes, totally fine for me in moderation. Just dont go overboard with loads of it. A small glass to satisfy the craving is okay yaar.
I tend to be careful with these things. From what my doctor said, small amounts are okay but excess is not advised, especially early on. Since I dont want to overstep, I would say just run it by your gynac once.
