Since I had a loss before, I was extremely cautious about raw foods. Cucumber is safe and healthy, but please wash it thoroughly under running water and peel the skin to avoid any harmful bacteria.
I was so scared to eat anything raw in my first trimester! But my doctor reassured me that cucumbers are completely safe and actually help with morning sickness. Just peel and wash them properly.
Yes, cucumber is great because it has lots of water and prevents dehydration. Just make sure you wash it very well to avoid infections, and keep up with your regular doctor visits.
