My MIL makes bajra roti almost daily in winters and now im 5 months pregnant. Someone told me it is heaty so im confused. Anyone here eating bajra regularly, koi problem to nahi hoti?
Haha yes dear, bajra is totally fine! It's not some secret villain, just eat it in moderation. Don't worry, your baby won't turn into a bajra roti! Just enjoy your meals.
Beta, bajra is very good for health, but in pregnancy we say it has a warm nature. Have it with a spoon of homemade white butter or curd to balance the heat. Don't eat too much of it during the hot months though.
Bajra is actually very nutritious, rich in iron and fiber. But it is considered warm or 'taseer garam', so moderation is key. Honestly, it's best to ask your gynac or dietitian because every pregnancy body reacts differently.
I ate a lot of bajra and ragi during my pregnancy for strength, and even after my C-section, it helped me recover. It's super healthy. Just don't overdo it, keep a balanced diet and listen to your body.
Hello! Bajra is great, especially during winters as it gives good warmth and energy. I used to make thin bajra rotis with a little ghee. Just make sure to drink plenty of water as millets can sometimes cause mild constipation if you're not used to them.
Yes absolutely! I had bajra regularly in my third trimester, and it kept my energy levels really high which helped during my normal delivery. It's a wonderful ancient grain. Just enjoy it fresh and hot.
Oh, I searched about this so much when I was pregnant! I was scared it might cause too much body heat, so I only ate half a roti once a week. If you are worried, maybe just eat a tiny bit first and see how your stomach feels?
