I eat dahi almost daily with my meals but my MIL says avoid it in starting months. Im only 6 weeks. Is there any truth to this or can i continue? confused yaar.
Yes, it is very safe and highly nutritious. Since it's easy on the stomach, it really helps when you are struggling with nausea. I kept a bowl of fresh, pasteurized curd as a daily staple during my early weeks.
Beta, fresh sweet curd is very cooling for the stomach and good for the baby's bones. Don't eat very sour or old curd, especially at night as it might cause cold. A bowl of dahi-rice during lunchtime is best.
Curd is absolute gold during the first trimester! It's packed with probiotics which keeps digestion smooth and prevents that annoying bloating. Try to have homemade curd and avoid packaged flavored ones which have too much sugar.
I literally lived on curd rice during my first trimester! It was the only thing my stomach could tolerate without throwing up. It keeps your body cool and gives you easy energy, so definitely go for it.
