I love figs and they are in season right now. I'm pregnant and want to know if it's safe for me to eat figs. Are there any restrictions or benefits to having them during pregnancy?
Haan, definitely! When I was at my parents' place, my mother used to soak 2 dried figs in water overnight and give them to me every morning. It really helped with my digestion and strength, so you can surely have them.
Absolutely, figs are a lifesaver! I used to carry dried anjeer in my laptop bag for quick office snacks because they are packed with fiber and give a quick energy boost without any prep time. Just stick to 2-3 a day.
Yes, you can eat them, but since they can be slightly warm for the body, I was very cautious and only started eating them in my second trimester. Just limit the quantity and always check with your doctor if you feel any hesitation.
Oh yes, please eat them! They are great for constipation, which is a total nightmare during pregnancy. Trust me, you want your digestion working perfectly so you don't end up sitting in the loo when you should be sleeping!
