I love eating ladyfinger (bhindi), but I'm wondering if it's considered good or safe to eat during pregnancy. Is it okay to include it in my diet regularly?
When I was pregnant, I felt so much comfort eating simple bhindi and roti. It was the only veggie that didn't make me feel heavy or bloated. It seriously felt like a lifesaver during those nine months.
I had GD during my pregnancy and ladyfinger was actually great for keeping my blood sugar stable. Just be careful not to make it too oily or deep-fried, simple dry bhindi bhujia is the best.
Honestly I love ladyfinger but my MIL says it's too slimy and can cause gas. Did u guys experience any stomach issues after eating it? Just want to be sure.
I actually eat bhindi a lot these days but sometimes get scared if too much is bad. Is anyone else also craving it daily in their second trimester? Please let me know if it's completely fine.
During my first trimester, normal food made me so nauseous but dry bhindi fry was one of the few things I could actually digest. The fiber really helped with the constipation too, so definitely go for it.
Bhindi is great for digestion, which is so important even after delivery. After my C-section, keeping my stomach light was a struggle and fiber-rich veggies like ladyfinger really helped me recover smoothly without straining.
Yes dear, ladyfinger is totally safe and highly recommended because of the folate and fiber. I used to have it twice a week to keep my digestion smooth. Just make sure to wash it properly before cooking.
