My MIL always made sure I had one apple in the morning and a seasonal fruit in the evening. Two fruits a day is usually what doctors also recommend.

With twins, I was eating like a mini elephant, so I had about 3-4 fruits a day! Just keep a variety like apples, bananas, and pomegranates.

My mother used to say eat as many fruits as you want, but my doctor advised keeping it to 2-3 servings a day to avoid extra sugar. Safe bet is a bowl of papaya-free mixed fruits.

Be very careful with sweet fruits if you have gestational diabetes. I was restricted to just 1 small apple or guava a day, so do ask your gynac what is safe for your sugar levels.

I literally used to weigh my fruit portions because I was so paranoid! Honestly, just eating 2 medium fruits a day is perfectly fine. Don't overcomplicate it like I did.
