I love til in winters but my mom said avoid it in early pregnancy. Im only 9 weeks. Is that true or just a myth? Confused because everyone says something different yaar.
In our family, elders tell us to avoid sesame seeds especially in the first trimester as they say it produces heat. But honestly, my doctor said a tiny amount in laddoos is completely fine. It's always best to ask your gynac to be sure.
I totally understand your fear, dear, we worry about every little thing we eat! Sesame seeds are usually avoided in early pregnancy, but a little bit later on is fine. Just be gentle with yourself.
I actually ate some sesame seeds in a gravy yesterday and now I'm super anxious! Did anyone else eat them during their pregnancy without any issues? My MIL says to avoid them completely.
I had sesame seeds in my dry fruit laddoos during my third trimester and it gave me great energy. It's safe in moderation, so stay positive and enjoy your pregnancy journey!
I avoided til or sesame seeds during my first trimester just to be safe, but had them in moderation later on for calcium. My baby is healthy and I'm currently breastfeeding, so don't worry too much about small amounts.
Small amounts of sesame seeds in food are okay later in pregnancy, but avoid them in early months. If you ever feel any mild cramps or spotting after eating something new, stop immediately and contact your doctor.
