My MIL keeps stopping me from eating certain fruits saying it's not good in pregnancy but doesnt explain why. Im 3 months and confused now. is there actually any fruit i should avoid?
Beta, hamare yahan papaya aur pineapple se mana karte hai, especially raw papaya, kehte hai garmi karta hai. Bohot saara nahi khana. Baaki fruits jaise apple, pomegranate to bahut achhe hai for you.
Commonly people avoid raw or unripe papaya and too much pineapple in early pregnancy. Ripe ones in small amounts are usually okay. But honestly fruit varies for each person, so just confirm with your gynac what suits your case.
My family told me to stay away from raw papaya and not eat too much pineapple. I followed it for peace of mind. But my doctor said ripe papaya in small amount is fine, so I didn't stress over it too much.
Honestly no fruit is fully 'bad' for everyone, but raw papaya and excess pineapple are the usual ones to avoid. With my sugar issues I also had to watch very sweet fruits like mango and chikoo quantity. So it depends on your health too, ask your doc.
Raw papaya is the main one to skip, it's the one elders warn about. I avoided it both pregnancies. Pineapple in big quantity I also kept low. Everything else like banana, apple, anaar I ate freely.
Don't overthink fancy lists na. Skip raw papaya and limit pineapple, that's the main thing. Cheap healthy fruits like banana, seasonal local fruits worked great for me and easy on the pocket.
