Im 6 weeks and craving pineapple so badly but my MIL keeps saying its garam and not safe in early days. I dont know how much of this is just old talk. anyone here ate it in first trimester?
Actually there is so much fear around pineapple yaar, but a normal slice is not going to do anything. I just didnt eat a whole one in one go. Everything in moderation is the trick.
Because of my history I just avoided it completely in early weeks to be safe, even if a little is fine. I would rather not take the chance personally. Do whatever lets you feel relaxed, and ask your doctor.
Beta our elders always said go easy on pineapple in the early months. A small amount usually does no harm but large quantities they avoided. To be safe, ask your doctor and keep the portion small.
I asked my gynac the same thing and she said small amounts are generally fine, its the huge quantities people worry about. So I just ate a few pieces occasionally. If you are unsure or high risk, your doctor is the best guide.
