For any woman being a mother is a beautiful feeling and this journey begins with
pregnancy. A feeling of happiness engulfed with anxiety and a myriad of health
issues, a woman goes through all this to bring a life into existence.Pregnancy
brings with it a wave of bliss and stress, as right from the first trimester, both
the mother and child needs ample care to sustain through the life-changing
term.Staying healthy and fit during pregnancy becomes the most crucial thing. Apart
from that eating healthy, nutritious and balanced diet is the foundation of a
healthy baby. The first trimester is believed to be the most crucial of all as a
small mistake can lead to miscarriage.It might sound strange, but there are fruits
that can actually trigger miscarriage. It is a preconceived notion that fruits are
good for the health of the baby and the mother. However, this doesn't apply to all
fruits, some can be harmful for the baby as well as for the mother. Here are some
fruits you must avoid such as papaya pineapple , crabs, eggs and mercury-rich fish
to name a few.Since childhood, we have been preached about the innumerable health
benefits of fruits and how they are essential for a healthy living. But everything
changes during pregnancy, and especially during the first trimester, when the
mother is at a high risk of miscarriage. However, a lot depends on the metabolism
of the mother. Apart from eating fruits and other factors like age and health of
the woman, lifestyle can also impact pregnancy. The consumption of such fruits can
lead to widening the cervix and cause inner contractions in the uterus causing a
miscarriage. Hence, it is often advised to avoid such foods.The sweet and tangy
flavour of this fruit is certainly a treat for the taste buds. However, during
pregnancy indulging in this fruit can be harmful and can lead to miscarriage.
Consuming either raw pineapple or its juice can cause miscarriage, this is due to
the presence of bromelain , which leads to contractions in the uterus and softens
the cervix causing harm to the fetus.Since ages papaya has been used as a food to
abort an unwanted pregnancy. Consuming papaya during pregnancy is a strict NO! This
is due to the presence of active enzymes create contraction in the uterus, which
causes miscarraige. It is so damaging during pregnancy that it can lead to
premature labour pain. Hence, avoiding it completely is the key to stay safe and
healthy.Saying no to this tarty yet sweet fruit can be difficult, but it is often
advised to avoid foods that are hot in nature, and one such fruit is peach.
Consuming peach during pregnancy can generate more heat in the body, which can lead
to internal bleeding and miscarriage.An apple a day can keep diseases at bay, but
in this case it can call for trouble. The acidic nature of wild apples can lead to
contraction of the uterus. Consuming these apples during this time can lead to
miscarriage.
