Can women with threatened miscarriage eat jujubes?

Patient's question:

Usually, I basically eat red dates every day. My legs have some cracked skin, and the amount is small. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it was threatened miscarriage. Can I eat red dates with threatened miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

Preterm labor refers to a condition before 28 weeks of pregnancy, where a woman initially experiences a small amount of vaginal bleeding, followed by intermittent lower abdominal pain or back pain that comes and goes, accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain and backache. If the symptoms worsen, it may develop into inevitable miscarriage. A miscarriage is defined as the termination of pregnancy before 28 weeks. It is best to avoid eating jujubes during preterm labor. If preterm labor occurs, pay attention to preventing nausea and vomiting, and try to alleviate the symptoms of miscarriage. Additionally, foods to avoid during preterm labor include: Job's tears, cinnamon, dried ginger, peach kernels, dog meat, pork head meat, rabbit meat, hawthorn, winter melon seeds, etc. It is recommended not to worry too much and to rest well. It is better to actively decide on medication for fetal preservation and pay attention to regular hospital visits to monitor the baby's growth and development.
