We got fresh kathal at home and i was about to eat but my saas stopped me saying its not good in pregnancy. Im in my 4th month and honestly love jackfruit, so confused if i should avoid totally or thoda thoda is ok. Anyone ate it during their pregnancy?
Ah, the never-ending list of foods to avoid, I totally remember that phase! It felt like I couldn't eat anything I truly wanted. Be kind to yourself, and remember this period of restriction is temporary. Your health and baby's health come first, so if you're doubtful, listen to your doc.
Oh god, I just wanted to eat *anything* that was edible and not taste like cardboard during pregnancy, haan? I remember my MIL saying to stay away from kathal. Honestly, I was so tired I just went with whatever was easiest and safest according to my doc. Didn't risk it, but sometimes wished I had some!
See, kuch log bolte hain theek hai, kuch bolte hain nahi. Mere ghar pe toh bolte the mat khao, thoda garam hota hai. Agar doubt hai toh simple, avoid it. Kyun extra tension lena, haan? There are so many other good things to eat.
With twins, I was always hungry! My diet felt like a complex science project, lol. Jackfruit was on my 'maybe sometimes' list. I figured if it's causing stress, it's not worth it. If you're really unsure, just avoid it or ask your doc. Less stress for mom is always a good thing.
I'm in my second trimester and also so confused about jackfruit! My MIL is strictly against it, saying it's 'garam'. But I kinda like it. Did anyone else eat it in their pregnancy? I'm so anxious about eating anything wrong.
Haan yaar, ye jackfruit ke baare mein sabki alag-alag rai hai. Meri mummy toh bolti thi garam hota hai, mat khao. Maine toh avoid hi kiya jyadatar, na. Kyunki kya pata, kyun risk lena. Tum bhi ek baar apni gynac se confirm kar lo.
Don't stress too much, sweetie! So many things people say are bad during pregnancy. I remember being so worried about every little thing. I did eat jackfruit sometimes, in small portions, and my baby is a happy, healthy toddler now. Unless your doctor specifically tells you no, a little bit might be okay.
I used a few pregnancy tracking apps, and most of them list jackfruit as 'eat in moderation' or 'consult your doctor'. It's not usually a red-flag food, but everyone's body is different. So yes, definitely talk to your gynac, they know your medical history best.
Honestly, I ate a little bit of jackfruit sometimes during my pregnancy, especially if it was cooked well. My delivery was completely normal. I think it's mostly about moderation, not completely avoiding everything unless your doctor says so. Just listen to your body and your gynac.
If you have gestational diabetes, like I did, you really need to be careful with fruits, especially ones that are a bit starchy or sweet like jackfruit. My doctor gave me a strict diet chart. So if you're in a similar situation, please check your blood sugar levels and consult your doc before eating it.
At my hospital, they always encouraged us to ask all our questions, even about specific foods like jackfruit. My gynac said if it's well-cooked and in moderation, it's generally fine, unless you have specific allergies or conditions. So definitely get clarification from your doctor's office.
My husband (he's a doctor) always says that for most Indian foods, if it's cooked hygienically and eaten in small quantities, it's usually fine. Jackfruit is one of those things where people have different opinions. Best to just ask your own doctor directly if you're worried about it.
Hey there! 😊 Jackfruit is one of those foods everyone has an opinion on! My gynac said a small portion is usually okay, but if you're still worried, it's always best to ask your doctor directly. Better safe than sorry and enjoy your pregnancy journey! ✨
Uff, the cravings were real, and sometimes they were for the 'forbidden' foods, haan! I loved kathal ki sabzi. My MIL warned me, so I didn't eat much, but a tiny bit here and there. If you're really craving, maybe just a very small portion, but confirm with your doctor first, yaar.
