    I've eaten spicy Mexican food with all three of my kids. It hasn't hurt anything other than giving me heart burn on occasion. If anything my two boys love spicy food too, so thats a plus in my book.

    I can't really eat spicy food (my bladder can't hold up to the acidity of certain foods) but, Mexican food has been my craving for sure. I don't even normally like it. But if I get my fix with chips and super spicy salsa, then so be it! It is totally okay. Someone told me they thought it was bad to eat spicy food, but I never read that anywhere in the many lists of foods you can't eat. Im sure it is perfectly fine, just like what everyone else says.

    Just stock up on the Tums (instead of taking two, I've been taking four. Taking two doesn't work! Milk or ice cream also helps)... And eat up!

    I craved Franks Red Hot Sauce...straight! I would just drink it from the bottle. I did the same thing with my daughter...she's is fine and has the most beautiful olive skin :) no rash...ever. There is a wives tale that spicy food will induce labor, but it didn't happen to me. Eat those pickles! :)

    I crave spicy food which is weird because normally I don't like anything above medium spicyness. I'm in my third trimester now and I've been eating spicy food the entire time! I even gobbled down a burrito with hot habanero sauce at a Mexican restaurant near my place. The owner was going :O
  • marabelmarabel
    I haven't stopped eating it I Love spicy food too much;) all my doctor said was to drink plenty of water if I was...

    It's not bad at all. It's good for your immune system. I haven't had heartburn whatsoever. I craved spicy things so much. I ate just about everything with tons of hot sauce on it.
  • laura536laura536
    I'm so jealous...I could hardly eat crackers at 7 weeks, lol!
  • mommy2b1111mommy2b1111

    I used to hate anything spicy before I got prego now its my #1 craving! I'm now 41 wks and still love it. No heartburn either. I blame it on BD cuz he is half mexican lol.The only thing I think it does to baby is get them excited! Whenever I eat spicy stuff my lil man goes crazy! Same with chocolate and caffeine...good stimulants ;)
