I literally add tomato in everything yaar, my whole cooking depends on it. But my saas keeps saying khatta cheez avoid karo in pregnancy. Is it actually fine to eat or should I cut down? im 9 weeks.
Yes, you can definitely eat them. When I was staying at my parents' place, my mother used to make mild tomato soup with a bit of black pepper to help with my morning sickness. It felt so comforting and light on the stomach.
I completely understand why you are asking this, even I used to google every single food item during my first trimester because of my anxiety. Tomatoes are totally safe and healthy, dear. Try eating them in soups or cooked form if raw makes you nervous. You are doing great, don't stress.
My doctor told me that tomatoes are rich in vitamin C and lycopene, which are actually very good for us. But she also advised not to overeat them if you have acidity issues, which is common in pregnancy. Just wash them thoroughly to avoid any soil bacteria.
Absolutely, they are super safe to eat! I've seen this question a lot here, and really, you don't need to cut out basic veggies. Just balance it out, wash them well, and if raw tomatoes give u heartburn, switch to cooked ones. Happy pregnancy!
Haan, naturally they are fine to eat and easily available at home. If tomato prices are high or they give you acidity, just limit them in your daily sabzi and use dahi for tanginess instead. No need to buy expensive exotic fruits when simple local tomatoes do the job.
Oh god, tomatoes saved me from my crazy nausea, though honestly right now I barely have time to eat a proper meal with my baby crying 24/7! Eat them if you like, but trust me, just enjoy your quiet eating time while you still have it. Don't overthink every vegetable.
Actually tomatoes are perfectly fine, yaar! I used to have them in my salads all the time because of that chatpata craving. Just make sure to wash them properly before eating, that's it. Nothing to worry about.
