Pregnant women with a history of miscarriage or signs of miscarriage should avoid eating it, even hawthorn products are no exception.

At this time, some hot fruits such as lychees, longans, etc. should be eaten in moderation, otherwise it is easy to cause constipate , mouth and tongue sores and other symptoms, especially some pregnant women should be more cautious, because hot fruits are more likely to cause uneasiness.
