I accidentally ate some papaya in a fruit salad yesterday and now im panicking thoda. Everyone in ghar says papaya is a big no during pregnancy. Im 9 weeks, should i be worried?
Don't worry too much if you ate a little bit by mistake, just keep a positive mind. Just avoid eating it going forward. God is protecting you and your little one, eat other seasonal fruits instead.
Listen, raw or semi-ripe papaya contains latex which is not safe at all as it can trigger uterine contractions. Ripe papaya is usually fine, but honestly, just avoid it completely for these nine months to be safe.
From my experience, it's better to completely avoid raw or semi-ripe papaya because it can cause contractions. Ripe papaya is technically fine, but why take any risk? During my recovery, I stuck to safe fruits like apples.
Wait, is ripe papaya also dangerous? I accidentally had a small piece yesterday and now I am panicking so much. Has anyone else eaten it by mistake and been totally fine?
