Mom made red pumpkin sabzi today and i suddenly wondered if its ok in pregnancy. Im in 2nd trimester. Heard its good but not sure, anyone here eats it regularly?
I have heard from elders that red pumpkin is very healthy and full of nutrients. It is gentle on the stomach too. I hope to cook it often when my turn comes.
I can only share that my family cooked red pumpkin sabzi regularly during my pregnancy. It tasted great and never caused me any digestive issues. It is a staple in many Indian homes.
I was so scared to eat anything wondering if it is hot or cold for the body. But red pumpkin is actually very safe and has great vitamins. Don't worry, you can eat it safely.
Yes, it is excellent. It helps with digestion and prevents constipation which is a huge issue in pregnancy. Just cook it nicely with basic spices at home.
