Oh, Nuts.
Just goes to show the rules of pregnancy are always changing. A new study followed pregnant moms and their babies for eight years tracking diet and health information. It would seem mothers who ate nut products every day (or almost every day) during pregnancy had children with up to a 52% greater chance of asthma symptoms like shortness of breath and wheezing.
Ironically, I love peanut butter, but didn’t eat that much during either pregnancy. Good for me. Good for my babies. Maybe I’m a good mommy after all. *wink*
For all those trying to figure out what is okay during pregnancy, you can cross the wonderful fats and protein of nuts off the list.
Nuts.
