Is it healthy to have too much rice during pregnancy. I am 25 weeks pregnant and don't like having too much rice and prefer having it in small amount with other vegetables and salad. But my mother-in-law forces me to have large quantity of rice and insists that if I don't take it, the child won't grow and have a dislike towards rice in the future.
