I love eating a banana before sleeping but my MIL keeps saying it causes cough and cold at night. Im in my 2nd trimester now and craving it badly. Is this just a myth ya there's some truth to it? Anyone else eats it at night?
I can't give medical advice, but personally, I had a banana almost every night during my third trimester. It really helped with my heartburn and kept me full. I had no cold or cough issues at all.
My doctor actually said eating bananas at night is totally fine as they are rich in potassium which helps with leg cramps. Just avoid them late if you have a severe cold or sinus issues. Otherwise, it is a very healthy snack before bed.
My mother-in-law told me to avoid cold fruits after sunset, but my doctor said bananas are completely safe at night. I trusted my gynac and had them regularly without any issues. It really helped my digestion.
Since I had thyroid, I had to be very strict with my diet and followed a proper routine. It's best to discuss your overall diet and late-night snacks with your doctor during your regular follow-ups. They know your health best.
Honestly I am in my 5th month and I get these massive hunger pangs around midnight. I really want to eat a banana but my MIL says sardi ho jayegi. Has anyone else eaten bananas at night during their second trimester?
Bananas are actually great for preventing those painful nighttime leg cramps because of the potassium. Just make sure you don't have a history of asthma or heavy congestion before eating them late. Otherwise, it is a perfectly healthy choice.
Oh I totally remember those late night cravings! I used to eat bananas at midnight and it was so comforting. Don't worry dear, you are doing great, just enjoy this beautiful phase.
Bilkul khao, there is no harm in eating a banana at night. It actually helps with acidity and helps you sleep better. Don't stress too much about these small myths, just take care of yourself.
