Its summer and im craving watermelon like crazy, having it almost daily now in my second trimester. MIL says too much cold fruit is not good but i feel so fresh after eating it. Curious what others think?
Watermelon is lovely in pregnancy, keeps you hydrated and cool. My family swore by it in summer months and I felt fresh after eating. Just dont have it ice cold and in huge amounts, balance is good.
Honestly watermelon was my craving savior, so refreshing in the heat. I had a bowl almost daily. Just fresh cut at home, not the pre cut roadside ones.
It is hydrating and good, but because of my sugar issue I had it in small portions only, since it raises sugar fast. If you have gestational diabetes, check the quantity with your doctor. Otherwise its a nice fruit.
