My MIL strictly says no papaya at all and i love it yaar. Im in second trimester now. Is it really that risky or only the raw kacha one we should avoid? confused, pls share what u know.
I am trying to conceive and even I have been told to avoid papaya just to be safe. It is better to eat other fruits like apples or pomegranates instead.
It's better to avoid papaya completely during pregnancy to stay safe. If anything goes wrong, emergency hospital visits and tests can cost a lot, so why take the risk?
When I was pregnant, I felt so confused about food, but my MIL and doctor both told me to completely avoid raw papaya. Honestly, it's just better to skip it for these 9 months to keep your baby safe.
Raw or semi-ripe papaya is definitely a no-no because it can cause contractions. If you are having severe cravings or any stomach issues, please ask your doctor instead of experimenting.
According to my pregnancy app tracker, unripe papaya contains latex which is unsafe. Fully ripe might be okay, but honestly, it's safer to avoid it altogether to prevent any risks.
Please avoid papaya strictly, especially unripe one. I had a very difficult past and my doctor warned me against it completely, so I would suggest staying far away from it.
In our homes, elders strictly say no to papaya because it is considered 'hot' food. My doctor also agreed that semi-ripe papaya is risky, so it's best to avoid it completely.
