First pregnancy so im super confused about food. My saas keeps saying papaya aur pineapple mat khao but is that true? wanna make a proper list of which fruits to avoid. pls share what your doctors told u.
Goodbye to raw papaya salads and pineapple pizza for a few months! Seriously, stick to apples and oranges, they are safer and won't give you any sleepless nights.
Actually, raw papaya contains latex which can trigger contractions, and pineapple has bromelain which softens the cervix. My doctor said fully ripe papaya in small amounts is fine, but it's safest to just avoid both during these nine months.
I totally understand how every little thing makes us worry when we are carrying our precious baby. Generally, my family told me to strictly avoid raw papaya and pineapple. Just eat apples and pomegranates happily, dear.
Please be extremely careful with raw papaya, pineapple, and unwashed fruits. After what I went through, I didn't take any chances and only ate fully peeled fruits. Please talk to your gynac to be safe.
When I was staying with Mummy, she would never let me touch raw papaya or pineapple because they can cause uterine contractions. She always gave me fresh apples, bananas, and chiku instead.
