I am craving noodles and chilli paneer so badly, but outside Chinese feels oily and spicy. I am 23 weeks and acidity is also there. Did you eat Chinese food during pregnancy?
Oh god, Chinese food cravings were so real for me! I did eat it, but I made sure it was from a place I trusted completely and asked them to make it less spicy, less oily. Like, once in a while it's okay, but not every day for sure. Always fresh.
I completely understand why you'd ask this! I worried about every single food item. It's usually fine to have Chinese food, but maybe avoid raw stuff or places that look unhygienic. If you're really anxious, maybe try making a healthier version at home? Or just have a small portion from a good restaurant.
Oh, a craving! I remember those days when even the smell of food made me queasy, but sometimes Chinese was the only thing I could stomach. Try to get it from a really clean place, and ask them to make it fresh and mild. Avoid anything very greasy or with too much MSG as it can trigger nausea or acidity.
Oh, darling, I totally understand wanting to enjoy your favorite foods during pregnancy! It's such a beautiful journey, and little joys like a good meal matter. Most Chinese food is fine if it's cooked well and hygienic. Just listen to your body and what feels good for you.
Beti, hamare yahan toh log kehte hain ghar ka khana sabse achha hota hai. Par agar bahar ka khana hai, toh saaf-suthra ho aur zyaada mirch masala na ho toh chalega. Chinese bhi thoda kam masala wala khao toh theek hai, zyada mat khaana bas.
It's generally okay to eat Chinese food in moderation, especially if it's from a trusted place. Just be careful with too much MSG or very spicy items. Your doctor can give you the best advice for your specific needs.
This is such a good question! I'm planning my pregnancy soon and I've been making a mental list of all the foods I might need to avoid or be careful with. Is it just the MSG we need to look out for, or are there other ingredients too? Thanks for asking!
I've been craving Chinese food so badly! I asked my gynac and she said occasionally from a good place is fine, but to avoid raw stuff and too much spice. But I'm still a bit nervous. Did others eat it without issues? What kind did you have?
During pregnancy, I did have Chinese occasionally but only from specific, high-rated places. After my C-section, I was advised to eat very light and simple food for a while. So during pregnancy, if you do eat it, ensure it's fresh and not too heavy on spices or oil to avoid any digestive issues.
Yes, you can eat Chinese. Just use common sense. Don't go to some shady roadside stall. Stick to hygienic, reputable restaurants, avoid raw items like certain salads, and tell them to go easy on the MSG and spice. Everything in moderation. I ate it with both pregnancies.
