My mom made some til laddoos and im a bit confused, kuch log say til is heaty and not good in pregnancy. Is white til different and safe to eat? thoda worried so asking.
Hmm, white til... I actually had a little bit in my diet during pregnancy, usually in small amounts, like in chikkis or over some sabzi. My delivery was quite normal and smooth, so I don't think it caused any issues for me. Bas thoda control mein khaya tha. You can always ask your doctor for specific guidance if you're worried.
Be positive beta, take care of yourself and your little one first. Regarding white til, my elders used to say that balance is key in everything we eat, especially during pregnancy. Just pray and trust that you're doing your best by eating healthy and listening to your body. Whatever feels right and peaceful for you, do that, but consult your doc too for clarity.
Honestly, about white til, I just ate it very sparingly, like if it was in a dessert someone offered. I never specifically sought it out or avoided it completely. It's always best to just follow your gynac's advice on what to eat and what not to, you know. I just stuck to what I knew was safe.
Oh god, white til! I remember my cravings for til ke ladoo during my first trimester, especially that nutty crunch. My MIL made some small ones for me, but I didn't eat too many, just for the taste. Thoda toh chalta hai na yaar, as long as it's in moderation! It's such a lovely winter treat.
So, my doctor actually said white til, especially in large quantities, is best avoided in early pregnancy as it's considered to have 'heat' properties which some believe can trigger uterine contractions. However, small amounts, like a pinch in a dish, are generally okay if you don't have a history of complications. But it's really crucial to consult your own gynac for personalized advice, they know your health best.
