My MIL keeps making bajra roti at ghar and says its good for me, but i read somewhere it has heat so thoda tension ho gaya. Im in my second trimester. Anyone been eating bajra regularly during pregnancy?
I felt so much energy after having bajra khichdi during my second trimester. My mom made it for me with lots of ghee and it felt like pure comfort food.
Yes, absolutely safe and actually very healthy. I used to make quick bajra rotis for dinner as they are rich in iron and keep you full longer. Just don't overeat it if it's too hot outside.
Of course, bajra is great for pregnancy. No need to buy expensive quinoa or fancy grains, simple local bajra bhakri or roti is perfect for iron and fiber.
Arey bilkul safe hai. It is rich in calcium and iron which we need a lot during these months. Just drink plenty of water with it because it can be a bit dry to digest.
In our family, we mostly eat ragi, but my MIL said bajra is also very good. I asked my doctor and she said both are completely safe. Just start with small portions if you are not used to it.
