Re: Eating raw rice during pregnancy
Hehe...is this a craving? Ive heard of women doing that....I would think it is... Cuz its not so easily digested. And ouch when it exists the body...ahem.
Re: Eating raw rice during pregnancy
It means your body is telling you that you lack something in your diet.. I think you should talk to your doctor and see what it is.. you may very well be anemic hence the urge to eat raw rice!
Re: Eating raw rice during pregnancy
I know of someone that did this throughout her pregnancy.......she and the baby both turned out fine.....
I don't think they consume enough to cause real digestive issues.
Re: Eating raw rice during pregnancy
I ate raw rice during my pregnancy.. allhumdolillah baby and I are good. This kind of craving is called 'pica'. Ur body is lacking something, for me it was a vitamin D deficiency. Other issue with eating raw, unwashed rice is the chance of consuming the harmful bacteria, listeria as well as others. So try and avoid it.. meet ur GP..
