Wife's pregnant and craves for dates. (No, No! - Not dates with other men..) - I am referring to Date - the fruit.
She likes to eat 5-10 of these every day. I couldnt find much information on these in any pregnancy book.
Does anyone know if its ok for a prognant woman to eat dates. They say pregnant women should not eat some fruits like Papaya because they have a lot of heat. We need to know if Dates fall in the same category - or are they ok?
thanks a lot

i think they are fine, just high in sugar, so it cud lead to extra kilos.
i also heard (anecdotal, not medical) that in the last trimester, u shud eat dates to help with the labour

Dates are similar to prunes. Those are fine to eat. Don't see any reason why dates are bad. They are rich in iron.

Well. If your wife is pregnant with your child, I don't think she should be out there dating other men.
Unless you like to watch.
