Steamed or boiled peanuts are a nice protein snack and were fine for me. Just watch portion and added salt. Since I had GD I was careful with everything, so check amounts with your doctor if you have any condition.

Haan they are healthy and safe, we eat them a lot here. Just keep the quantity reasonable and not too salty. Good for you and baby both.

Yes, in normal amounts they're a good snack. Avoid only if you're allergic.

Beta boiled peanuts are good, full of protein, we always had them in season. Just dont overeat as they can feel heavy. If you have any allergy then avoid, otherwise enjoy.

Yes they're fine and a good source of protein. I had them often, just in moderation and well cooked. Only skip if you have a known peanut allergy.

Oh I lived on steamed peanuts, so yummy and filling. Generally safe in normal amounts unless you have a peanut allergy. Just go easy on the salt and you're sorted.
