I am craving spicy food but every time I eat, acidity starts. Baby is fine in scans but elders keep saying spicy food affects baby also. What did you experience with mirchi cravings?
A little spice is okay, baby is safe. If it triggers acidity try cold milk or saunf after meals, helped me. But if you ever get severe burning or stomach pain that wont settle, do mention it to your doc.
Spicy food doesnt harm the baby at all, dont worry. The only thing it did to me was give crazy heartburn and acidity in the later months. So enjoy your chaat but maybe go easy if your tummy is sensitive.
Haan spicy se bacche ko kuch nahi hota na, bas apni acidity badh jati hai. Mujhe last months mein bahut jalan hoti thi. Toh thoda kam karke khao, baaki tension nahi.
It wont affect the baby, thats a myth. I ate masaledaar food in both pregnancies. The real problem is gas, acidity and sometimes loose motions if you overdo it. Just keep some buttermilk handy and you'll be fine.
For me spicy stuff made the acidity and nausea so much worse, especially in the first trimester. It doesnt reach the baby though, its just your own digestion that struggles. I switched to milder food and felt loads better.
