Arre, mango season is the best and pregnancy shouldn't stop you! I used to crave chilled mango slices all day. Just eat one a day and enjoy your cravings without any guilt.

Mangoes are perfectly safe in the first trimester. They have folic acid and iron which is actually good for the baby. Just avoid eating too many at night to prevent acidity.

I practically lived on mangoes earlier! People say they cause 'heat', but honestly, if you eat them in moderation, they are a lifesaver for nausea. Just wash them well and go for it.

Malathi Vyas · Answer

Yes, you can! Mangoes are great for morning sickness because of their sweet and sour taste. Just don't overeat them and enjoy the season.

Sowmya Sharma · Answer

I had so many mangoes during my first trimester last summer. My doctor just told me to soak them in water for an hour before eating to reduce the natural heat. It worked perfectly for me!

You can eat mangoes, but always keep an eye on your overall diet and thyroid levels. It's safe in moderation, but do discuss your complete food chart with your gynac during your routine visits.

I love mangoes so much and was wondering if they are safe during the early weeks. Some elders say they are too 'garm'. It's reassuring to hear that most moms ate them safely!

I ate mangoes throughout my pregnancy and had a safe delivery. Just ensure you wash them thoroughly to get rid of any chemicals or pesticides. Moderation is always the key.

Yes, you can eat mangoes, they are rich in Vitamin C. But since they are high in sugar, keep your portions in check, especially if you have a desk job. A small bowl as an afternoon snack is perfect.
