I'm in my sixth month of pregnancy and trying to eat healthy. Can I eat dry fruits like almonds and walnuts in the sixth month of pregnancy? My mother-in-law gives me different advice.
Same here, I'm also in my 6th month now and my doctor told me to eat soaked almonds and walnuts daily. Are you also having them with warm milk at night? It really helps me sleep better.
I totally understand worrying about every single thing you eat, I was exactly the same way. But yes, dry fruits are very safe and healthy in your 6th month. Just soak almonds and walnuts overnight to make them easier to digest.
Dry fruits are excellent for your 6th month! Just eat a balanced mix of almonds, pistachios, and walnuts every day. If you find them heavy, soaking them overnight in water helps a lot.
Yes, you absolutely should eat them. They are packed with iron and calcium which you and the baby need right now. Have a small handful of almonds, walnuts, and figs daily, but avoid eating too many dates as they can generate heat.
Beta, dry fruits are very good for the baby's brain. But always soak almonds and peel their skin before eating, and don't eat too many hot dry fruits like dates or cashews during summers.
They are great, but be careful with raisins, figs, and dates if you have gestational diabetes like I did. They can spike your blood sugar levels quickly, so stick to almonds and walnuts instead.
