My mom keeps giving me soaked badam and walnuts every morning saying its good for baby. Im only in 6th week so wondering if its ok to have nuts this early or wait a bit. anyone?
Yes, eating nuts is generally considered very healthy and safe. But since I had complications, I was very careful to make sure my nuts were stored well and not moldy, as that can cause stomach infections. If you have any allergies or doubts, definitely consult your doctor first before making any major diet changes.
Nuts are the ultimate snack for working moms because they are so practical, filling, and require zero prep time! Just keep a small jar of almonds and walnuts at your office desk and eat a handful daily. They give great energy and are super healthy for the baby's brain development in early pregnancy.
Absolutely, eat them! I used to eat walnuts and almonds like crazy because I was growing two babies and was always hungry. They are like tiny powerhouses of nutrition, just don't eat the salted or fried ones, buy the plain ones to save yourself from extra bloating.
My mom and saas soaked almonds for me every single night! They said soaking makes them easier to digest and prevents 'garam' effects in the body. Soaking 5-6 badaam daily is a super safe and traditional way to eat them in your first trimester.
It is so normal to worry about every single thing you put in your mouth in these early weeks, I was exactly the same! But you can absolutely eat nuts, they are very safe and packed with healthy fats that help your baby. Just have a small handful daily and relax, you are doing great.
