My mom made til laddoo and now everyone at ghar is saying til is not good in pregnancy. Im so confused. Is it actually unsafe or just a myth? someone clear this pls.
I was so confused about this because my MIL said absolutely no til, but my doctor said a little bit is okay! I am in my 2nd trimester now and still super scared to eat sesame seeds. Has anyone else eaten them safely?
My doctor clarified that sesame seeds are actually rich in calcium and iron, which are great for the baby. The idea that they cause miscarriage is just a myth. Still, moderation is key, so avoid eating too much at once.
Look, having a pinch of sesame seeds on your burger or salad won't do anything. But avoid eating heavy sweets like til patti or gajak in large quantities, especially in the first trimester. Keep things balanced and you'll be perfectly fine.
Sesame is super nutritious actually! It has lots of calcium for baby's bones. A little bit in your meals is perfectly fine, just don't binge on til chikki, okay? Keep smiling and enjoy your food!
Ji, khane me thoda bahut til safe hota hai, par shuruat ke mahino me log parhez karte hain. Bhagwan ka dhyan dhar ke thoda kha sakte hain, bas dhyan rakhe ki bohot zyada mat khaiye.
Yes, sesame is safe, but only in moderation. The whole 'heating food' thing is a bit exaggerated, but obviously don't go eating whole boxes of til ladoos. A little bit sprinkled on food is completely fine.
I had PCOS so I was extra cautious about everything I ate. I avoided til in my first trimester just to be on the safer side, but started having a little bit in my second trimester after my doctor said it was okay. Better to take it easy and follow your gynac's advice.
