Im 6 weeks and everyone at ghar is telling me alag alag cheezein avoid karo, papaya nai, pineapple nai, ye nai wo nai. Honestly thoda confused ho gayi hu what to actually skip. Can someone share the real list of foods to avoid?
Since it was an IVF journey for me, I was extra careful about eating. Honestly, my doctor told me to strictly avoid raw papaya, pineapple, and uncooked eggs or meat. Just eat fresh ghar ka khana and stay stress free, dear, everything will go beautifully.
Just had my baby last month and my gynac had told me to avoid raw seafood, papaya, and caffeine. I actually missed my daily multiple cups of chai so much but it's totally worth it. Just keep sipping coconut water and eat well-cooked fresh meals.
Oh totally avoid anything that causes gas or bloating because if you end up with a C-section like me, gas pain during recovery is very tough. Better to stay away from raw or half-cooked nonveg and too much fast food right now. Just stick to clean, home-cooked light meals.
Ghar ka fresh food is the best, but please stay away from raw papaya, unripe pineapple, and unpasteurized milk as they aren't safe. For small cravings you can have makhana or dry fruits but don't try heavy herbs without asking. If you ever feel severe cramping or heavy vomiting, directly call your doctor instead of home remedies.
Trust God and just keep a positive mind during this beautiful time. Usually we are told to avoid highly heating foods like sesame or too much masala, but more than anything, think good thoughts while eating. God bless you and your baby.
I used to avoid highly spicy street food and excessive caffeine because it can cause acidity, which gets worse later on. Eat nutritious items like dal, green veggies, and milk which actually help later during breastfeeding too. Just keep your diet simple and healthy.
