I snack on roasted peanuts almost daily, its my go to when im hungry between meals. Now someone told me to be careful with nuts in pregnancy and im a bit confused. Im 4 months. are peanuts fine or no?
My doctor said the old advice about avoiding peanuts to prevent baby allergies has changed, and now eating them in pregnancy is considered okay if mom isn't allergic. They're rich in protein and folate. She just told me to have them in moderation, not by the bowlful.
Yes peanuts are fine and actually a good protein source unless you yourself are allergic. I snacked on roasted ones daily in both pregnancies. Just avoid the very salty fried packet ones, go for plain roasted.
Peanuts were my cheap protein hero in pregnancy, way kinder on the budget than fancy supplements. A handful of roasted moongphali in winter, so good. Totally safe unless you have a peanut allergy.
Haan bilkul kha sakte ho, moongphali to protein se bhari hoti hai na. Main to roz thodi roasted khati thi. Bas allergy nahi hai to no tension, fried namkeen wali se thoda door raho.
