Newly pregnant and my MIL keeps telling me dont eat this dont eat that, papaya, pineapple and all. Getting confused what to actually avoid. Can u share what your doctor told u?
Beta in our families raw papaya and pineapple were always avoided. We also said no to very cold and stale food. But everything in moderation, dont starve yourself out of fear.
My elders said avoid papaya and too much heaty food na. I followed it but also asked my gynac to be sure. Balance of family wisdom and doctor advice worked for me.
Common ones people avoid are raw papaya, too much pineapple, raw or undercooked foods, and unpasteurised stuff. Wash all fruits well. But dont go fear eating, ask your gynac about your specific list.
Beyond the usual list, I had to watch sugary fruits and juices because of GD. So it also depends on your health. Get a proper diet chart from your doctor or dietician.
Dont fall down the internet rabbit hole yaar, those lists scare everyone. Skip the few common ones and eat normally otherwise. Don't stress over every single thing.
I got so scared reading long avoid lists online honestly. So its mainly raw papaya, pineapple and unwashed stuff na? Phew, I thought half my plate was banned.
