I ate almost all seasonal veggies like louki, turai, and bhindi, and had a very smooth normal delivery. Just avoid raw vegetables and salads from outside to prevent stomach infections. Homemade, well-cooked food is always best!

There are no specific 'forbidden' vegetables, but raw sprouts are a big no due to salmonella risk. Always wash your leafy greens like spinach very thoroughly to remove dirt and bacteria, and make sure everything is fully cooked.

I was told to avoid raw papaya and unwashed leafy greens. Is it safe to eat well-cooked cabbage, or should we avoid that too? I'm in my fourth month and still so confused about salads.

It is completely natural to feel anxious about every bite of food you take right now. To help ease your mind, just avoid raw sprouts and raw salads from outside. Cooked vegetables are totally safe and healthy, so try to focus on that.

Having PCOS made me highly cautious about my diet, so I avoided raw sprouts and unwashed green salads completely to prevent any gut infections. It's always safer to stick to boiled or thoroughly cooked veggies to be absolutely safe.

Listen, you can eat almost all vegetables, just make sure they are washed thoroughly and cooked well. Strictly avoid raw sprouts because they can carry bacteria, and try to have cooked ghar ka khana instead of raw salads outside, okay?
