Honestly im craving achar so bad these days, like every meal i want it. But my saas keeps saying avoid it. Is thoda pickle actually ok during pregnancy?
Eat in moderation and keep your mind happy, dear. A little pickle is fine to change your taste, just make sure to pray and stay positive. Take good care of your health and don't stress over tiny things.
I literally just delivered last month and trust me, pickles were my main craving! I ate ghar ka nimbu achaar almost daily with dal rice. It never caused me any issues, but yes, don't eat too much spicy outside ones.
Yes dear, you can definitely have pickles but keep the portion small. The high sodium and oil can trigger bad acidity or bloating, which is already a headache during pregnancy. Homemade pickles are always better than store-bought ones.
Yaar, aam ka achaar was my absolute savior when I felt nauseous! Don't stress too much about it, just eat a small spoonful with your paratha. Just don't eat the whole jar in one go!
I craved pickle so much during my pregnancy! But my doctor told me to watch the salt intake because it can cause swelling or high BP, which makes C-section recovery harder. A little bit is totally fine, just don't overdo it.
When I was staying at my mum's place, my mother made special low-salt lemon pickle for me. She always said home-made things are safest for the baby. Having a tiny bit with meals is perfectly fine and helps with metallic taste.
