Im in my second trimester and after meals i get this bohot strong craving for hajmola, the khatta wala. MIL keeps saying avoid it now but i just love it yaar. Anyone had it during pregnancy?
Hajmola taste me toh bohot sahi lagti hai na pregnancy me. But isme salt bohot zyada hota hai toh roz mat khana. Thoda bohot kabhi kabhar chalta hai, par daily consumption avoid karo.
Honestly, Hajmola might give quick relief for gas, but it has a lot of salt and chatpata ingredients. It is always best to have a word with your doctor before eating it regularly. They can suggest safer digestion aids that won't affect your blood pressure.
I had the same craving during my first trimester and asked my consultant during my routine checkup. They told me to avoid too many of these over-the-counter digestive tablets because of the high sodium content. Better to drop a quick message to your hospital care team or gynac first.
Omg I was literally obsessed with Hajmola in my second month, that sour taste is just amazing! But my MIL warned me not to eat too much of it. Now I just take half a tablet when the nausea gets really bad, just for the taste!
Same here, I also had a lot of acidity and wanted hajmola daily. I switched to warm lemon water with a pinch of black salt instead, it is much safer and works wonders.
