I am craving cold watermelon a lot these days, especially in afternoon. My mom says too much cold fruit is not good, so now I am confused. Did you eat it during pregnancy?
Watermelon was my absolute best friend in summer pregnancy, so cooling and hydrating. Its totally good, helps with that constant thirst and even my acidity felt better. Just eat it fresh, dont keep cut pieces sitting out for long.
It is good and hydrating for most, but i had to watch my sugar so i kept the portion small since melon is sweet. If you dont have a sugar issue, enjoy it in normal amounts. If you do, just check with your doctor about how much fits your diet.
In our family watermelon is loved in summer and i had it all through pregnancy ma. Its light and keeps you cool. Only thing my mother said, eat it on its own and not late at night. Otherwise enjoy it freely.
Yes its fine and actually nice in pregnancy, lots of water content keeps you hydrated. Just dont overdo it in one sitting and always eat fresh cut, not the stuff lying around outside. Wash it well before cutting too.
