I have a habit of chewing saunf after every meal, sometimes a lot of it. Now im 7 weeks pregnant and someone said too much fennel is not good in early pregnancy. Is small amount ok or should i fully stop? bit worried.
Beta a little saunf after meals for digestion is something we always did, in small amounts it is fine. Just dont have it in very large quantities daily. For the normal pinch after food, no worry.
Chewing a little saunf actually helped my nausea and gas in early pregnancy. A small amount is fine and soothing. I just didnt take it in big concentrated doses, kept it to a normal after meal pinch.
Small culinary amounts of fennel are generally fine, the caution is mainly about large medicinal doses. I had saunf water occasionally for bloating. If you want it daily in big amounts, just check with your gynac.
