Congratulations.
Pregnancy is a blissful period. Along with increasing hormonal levels in body there is also increase in nutritional requirements. Kiwi fruit is rich in vitamin C, which is immunity nutrient as well as one of the blood forming nutrient.
It’s completely safe to consume fresh fruits and vegetables during pregnancy and Kiwi is no exception.

Congratulations on your pregnancy!
Kiwi fruit is generally safe to consume during pregnancy, as it is a good source of vitamins C and K, fiber, and potassium. However, it's important to wash the fruit thoroughly before eating to remove any potential bacteria or pesticides that may be on the skin.
There are some things you should keep in mind while consuming kiwi fruit during pregnancy:
1. Don't overeat: While kiwi fruit is a healthy food, it's important not to overeat it. Eating too much fruit can lead to gestational diabetes or other health problems.
2. Allergies: Some people may be allergic to kiwi fruit, and if you have a known allergy, it's best to avoid it.
3.Acidic content: Kiwi fruit is acidic in nature, which can cause heartburn or other digestive problems for some pregnant women. So, you may want to limit the intake if you experience such symptoms.
4. Medication interaction: If you are taking blood-thinning medication, it's best to avoid kiwi fruit as it contains vitamin K, which can interfere with the medication's effectiveness.
For any lifestyle problem you can directly consult to me.
