Question

My mom soaks akhrot and gives me 2 every morning saying it's good for baby's brain. I just want to confirm it's safe na, im 14 weeks. Anyone else eating walnuts daily?

Akhrot toh bohot acche hote hain bacche ke dimaag ke liye. Humare ghar pe toh sab bolte hain roz do-teen bhigo kar khana chahiye. Aap bhi roz subah khao, bohot taakat milegi.

Soaked walnuts are very healthy during these months. Just eat 2-3 daily with your breakfast. Take care of your health.

I had thyroid issues throughout my pregnancy and walnuts actually helped with healthy fats. My doctor suggested eating them daily but also told me to keep checking my thyroid levels every month. Definitely keep up with your regular doc visits and blood tests.

Yes dear, walnuts are absolutely safe and packed with good fats. Just soak them overnight because it makes them easier to digest and reduces body heat. Don't worry, it's very good for you and the baby.

Walnuts are generally very healthy, but it's always best to ask your gynac first. Every pregnancy is different, so just run it by her during your next scan visit just to be 100% sure.

I completely understand why you are questioning everything you eat, I was also terrified of eating the wrong nuts! But honestly walnuts are super safe and great for baby's brain. I used to soak them overnight to feel safer.
