What not to eat during 2nd trimester of pregnancy?
Just entered my second trimester and finally my appetite is back so im eating everything haha. But now im confused which things i should still avoid at this stage. What did you all stay away from?
Avoid raw or undercooked meat and eggs, unpasteurised dairy, too much caffeine and street food that can upset your tummy. Other than that, eat a balanced home diet. Nothing too complicated really.
On top of the usual list, watch sugary stuff and heavy fried food, especially in the second trimester when sugar can creep up. I cut down on sweets and packaged juices. If your sugar is being monitored, follow your doctors diet closely.
I avoided raw papaya, too much pineapple and any street chaat that could cause infection. Stuck to fresh home cooked food mostly. For specific worries about a food, just ask your gynac.
