Made kaddu sabzi at home today and then suddenly got doubt whether its fine in pregnancy. Im in first trimester and being extra careful with food. Is pumpkin okay to eat na?
I was also scared to eat pumpkin because some elders said it is 'hot' for the body. But I had it last week in my 2nd trimester and felt totally fine. Did anyone else also get worried about 'heating' foods?
Yes! Pumpkin is amazing and loaded with vitamins and fiber 🎃 It helps so much with pregnancy constipation. Go ahead and enjoy some nice warm pumpkin soup or sabzi!
Yes, you can definitely eat pumpkin, it is highly nutritious! When I asked the dietician at my hospital, they said it's great for digestion. Still, you can ask your doctor or hospital staff during your next visit for a personalized diet chart.
Personally, I ate pumpkin sabzi and soup a lot during my pregnancy. It really helped with my digestion and tasted delicious. It is a very simple and comforting food.
