Just got my positive test last week and im honestly confused what all i should stop eating. My MIL keeps giving me a long list but half of it sounds like old wives tales. Can someone tell me what really needs to be avoided?
Main cheezein, raw papaya, pineapple in large amount, kachha egg, undercooked meat aur outside ka cut fruit. I avoided street chaat completely both times, infection ka risk zyada hota hai. Baaki sab normal rakho.
My gynac gave me a list, raw or half cooked egg/meat, high mercury fish, unpasteurised cheese, raw sprouts and limit caffeine to 1 cup. She said washed fresh fruits and home cooked food is totally fine, dont overthink the rest.
At home they told me to avoid papaya and excess pineapple, and I did just to keep elders happy. Mainly raw and outside food avoid karo. Whatever you eat, keep it fresh and home made na.
For me sweets aur sugary stuff bhi control karna pada because of sugar levels. But that was my case. Generally raw, unwashed and very oily food avoid karo, aur jo bhi confusion ho gynac se pooch lo, har body alag hai.
Beta hamare time pe bhi raw papaya aur til se door rehne ko bolte the. Par zyada superstition mat pakdo, fresh ghar ka khana khao, properly pakaya hua. Doubt ho to doctor better batayegi.
