Coconut water

I heard that drinking coconut water near due date can help to ‘clean’ baby’s skin at birth, does it really matter which type of coconut water? My friends say it has to be the green skin coconut, not the Thai coconut ( brown ) that we always see at fruit stalls in the shopping malls...

No problem to drink after third trimester. Bought coconut bottled water from NTUC (cocomax and other brand), been drinking for 2 times a week and my baby girl came out clean. :)

Yes it has to be green coconut. My grandparents and friends mention to me only green color coconut. And my baby came out very clean.

I also heard to drink the green skin coconut and not thai coconut. Can get the green skin ones at hawker centres.

I used to drink only fresh coconut juice and also eat the pulp, i never liked the taste of canned ones.

Hi, I think any coconut is fine as long as you drink the fresh one :)

Thai coconut is fine. As long as it’s fresh ones not those canned ones .

It doesn’t matter I think. As Long as drink since coconut is cooling

I don’t think it actually works, but it was nice to drink. Haha
