Saw kiwi at the fruit shop and felt like buying but then got confused if it suits pregnancy or not. Im in my second trimester. Anyone been eating it regularly?
It is generally safe, but since I had a very complicated pregnancy journey, I always double-checked every single fruit with my gynac before eating. It is always better to spend two minutes asking your doctor than worrying later.
In our family, elders usually suggest traditional fruits like pomegranates, but my doctor strongly recommended kiwi for its high vitamin C and folic acid content. I trusted my doctor and had one almost every day. It's very safe and healthy.
Absolutely, kiwi is a superfood! It's loaded with folate and vitamin C which is great for iron absorption. Just wash it thoroughly before eating, and you are good to go.
Honestly, kiwi was one of the few things that tasted great and didn't give me crazy gas. Go ahead and eat it! I miss the days when my biggest worry was whether to eat a kiwi or an apple, now I'm just trying to sleep for 2 hours straight.
My nutritionist at the hospital gave me a complete diet chart and specifically added kiwi for my skin and immunity. It's best to ask your own doctor or hospital dietician about the quantity, but generally it's highly recommended.
Dekho, kiwi bohot accha fruit hai and isme fiber bhi bohot hota hai. Faltu ka darr mat rakho dimaag mein, bas dho ke acche se khao. Ek kivi roz khana kafi hai, zyada nakhre nahi!
When I was throwing up constantly in my first trimester, the sour and tangy taste of kiwi was such a relief! It is easy on the stomach and helps you stay hydrated. Definitely give it a try if you are struggling with nausea.
I've heard kiwi is really rich in folate, which is so important even when we are planning to conceive. Adding it to my daily fruit bowl now! Did you guys eat it raw or put it in smoothies?
Kiwi is a good modern fruit, beta, but don't eat it cold straight from the fridge as it can cause a cold. Eat it at room temperature and don't have too many together, one fruit a day is more than enough.
Currently in my 3rd trimester and kiwi is my absolute savior for constipation! Trust me, the fiber in it is a blessing when your digestive system feels completely shut down. Plus, it's nice and tangy when you are tired of sweet things.
Kiwi is actually amazing as it has good vitamins, but if you have any issues like thyroid or gestational diabetes like I did, always check with your doctor first. I had to monitor my diet closely and keep up with regular follow-ups to make sure my levels were perfect.
