I've been craving imli like crazy in my second trimester, ghar pe everyone says it causes acidity and to avoid it. Is it actually a problem or just an old myth? Bohot confused na.
Oh my god, I just love imli chutney! This is exactly the kind of question I have saved in my notes for when I get pregnant. I hope it's safe, because sometimes you just need that khatta kick, you know? It's so confusing what's allowed and what's not.
Oh, I had a huge craving for imli churan last week and just couldn't resist! I ate a small packet. Now I'm in my 2nd trimester and feeling a bit worried, should I not have done that? Has anyone else here had imli during their pregnancy and everything was completely fine? Thoda dar lagta hai.
I actually avoided a lot of things during my pregnancy just to be super safe, so I didn't really have imli much. But I've heard some women say they had it without issues. I always just say, if you're ever in doubt about anything, it's better to ask your gynac directly than rely on internet advice.
When I was at Apollo/Fortis, the dieticians and my doctor were super clear about what to eat. They said that in general, small amounts of common foods are okay, but if you have specific concerns like imli, it's best to ask them directly. They usually give a very detailed list of dos and don'ts.
I remember looking this up on my Ovia app and also on some other trackers. Most apps say that in moderate amounts, imli is generally fine for pregnancy. It even has some vitamins. But seriously, for anything specific, always double check with your doctor. They know best about *your* health.
Honestly, thodi imli didn't cause any issues for me. I had cravings for tangy stuff, so sometimes I'd have a little bit in sambar or as a candy. Everything was fine, and I had a normal delivery. But like with anything, moderation is key. If you're really worried, ask your gynac.
