Curd actually settled my stomach when nausea was bad, so I had it often. Just keep it fresh and not too sour. Worked nicely for me even at night.

My MIL always said no curd at night, ghar pe ye rule tha. But my gynac said curd is fine, just have it slightly early and not ice cold. So I did a middle path haha.

Yes you can, just not super cold. I ate it daily.

Haan you can eat na, it's just a old belief about cold at night. I used to have a small bowl with dinner, no problem. Just avoid fridge cold curd, room temp is better.

Curd is actually good for digestion and protein during pregnancy. The night thing is more tradition than medical. If it doesnt give you acidity, you are fine, but ask your doc if unsure.
