I love baingan but my MIL says avoid karo in pregnancy, no idea why. Im 14 weeks now. Is there really any harm or is it just one of those purane stories?
Honestly, I would suggest staying very cautious. My elder family members strictly told me to avoid brinjal during pregnancy as it is believed to induce heat and sometimes menstruation in traditional beliefs. After my past experience, I didn't want to take any risk, so I completely avoided it. Please consult your doctor before having it.
Arey haan na, baingan ko lekar bohot confusion rehta hai. Gynac bohot baar thoda quantity me allow kar dete hain, par jyada khane se acidity ho sakti hai. Better hai ki badhiya cooked baingan thoda sa hi khao taste ke liye, and avoid regular use. Take care, haan!
Keep your thoughts clean and positive, dear. Baingan is generally considered quite 'heat' producing in traditional homes, so many families avoid it. If you want to eat, just have a tiny bit of baingan bharta for taste and pray to God. Your health is in safe hands, just take care.
It's best to eat it in very small quantities if you crave it, but try to avoid eating too much. Many people say it is not very good during these months. Just check with your doctor once during your next visit to be completely safe.
Hamare yahan toh bade buzurg kehte hain ki pregnancy me baingan nahi khana chahiye kyunki isse thodi acidity ya garmi ho sakti hai. Aap apne doctor se ek baar pooch lijiye. Agar man kar raha hai, toh thoda sa hi khana, bohot sara mat khao. Khush raho aur dhyan rakho.
