I love my food spicy and honestly cant imagine eating bland everyday. Now everyone at home is telling me to cut down completely since im pregnant. Does spicy food actually affect the baby or is it ok in moderation?
I am a total spice lover and I ate spicy food through pregnancy, it is safe yaar. It does not harm the baby at all. Just be ready for some heartburn if you overdo it, haha.
It is safe but it gave me wicked acidity and heartburn, especially later on. If your tummy handles it, go for it. I just kept the spice moderate and drank cold milk when it bothered me.
