We love seafood at home but ever since i got pregnant everyone says avoid prawns. Im in 4th month now. Is it actually a no-no the whole pregnancy or okay sometimes if well cooked? Anyone non-veg moms here?
Hey, main bhi second trimester mein hoon aur mujhe bhi yahi question tha. Mujhe bahut darr lagta hai kuch galat na kha lu, prawns ka bhi yahi hai. Aap sab ne khaye hain kya? Safe feel hua?
Dekho, prawns kha sakte ho but thoda dhyaan se. Ghar pe banao aur achhe se pakao. Bahar ka avoid karna ya jahan hygiene ka pakka ho. Zyaada mat khao, limit mein theek hai. Apne doctor se bhi ek baar confirm kar lo.
Jab main pregnant thi, mere gynac ne bola tha ki seafood le sakte hain but jo low mercury wale hote hain. Prawns generally safe hote hain, bas portion control karna aur fresh honi chahiye. Ab toh main feed kar rahi hoon, toh bhi dhyaan rakhti hoon.
Oh god, prawns! Mereko toh itni cravings hoti thi seafood ki pregnancy mein, especially prawns ki. Thoda moderate amount mein lena, aur make sure achhe se cooked ho. Par haan, it's definitely a treat when you can have it.
Actually, maine ispe kafi research ki thi aur apni doctor se bhi pucha tha. She said prawns are generally safe to eat during pregnancy because they are low in mercury. Just make sure they are fully cooked to a high temperature to kill any bacteria, and avoid raw ones. Don't overdo it, maybe 1-2 servings a week is fine.
