Im in my second trimester and craving kharbooja so badly in this heat. My MIL keeps saying avoid melons during pregnancy but I dont know why. Anyone been eating it without any issue?
Muskmelon is fine and refreshing in summer, I ate it both pregnancies. Just make sure it is fresh and properly washed. Avoid pre cut pieces lying out for hours, that is the only real caution.
We had muskmelon at home in summer and it is fine, very cooling and hydrating. My amma said wash it well and eat fresh, not cut and kept too long. My doc agreed it is good in moderation.
