Mummy keeps making lauki sabzi daily and honestly im bored of it but she says its very good for baby. Just wanted to confirm na that its actually safe to eat so much during pregnancy?
Yes, bottle gourd is very safe and highly nutritious, but just make sure it's not bitter. I used to eat a lot of lauki for digestion, along with my thyroid medicine. Ensure you keep your regular doctor visits and follow-ups on track too!
Lauki is a beautiful, pure sattvik vegetable that is excellent for your body during this journey. Eat fresh, homemade food with a peaceful mind and stay positive. Take good care of your health, dear!
I literally lived on lauki ki sabzi and soup during my third trimester because of heavy acidity. It's super cooling for the stomach and completely safe. Just make sure you wash and cook it thoroughly before eating.
Though bottle gourd is generally very healthy and safe, I always believe in consulting your gynecologist about your diet first. Every pregnancy is unique, so a quick confirmation from your doctor is the safest way to go.
I panicked once because someone told me lauki juice is dangerous! But then my doctor cleared it up that only bitter lauki is bad, cooked normal lauki is absolutely safe and healthy. So eat it cooked and enjoy its benefits!
