Watermelon is generally fine in early pregnancy, but just go easy on the portions since it's quite high in natural sugars and can fill you up without much nutrition. I'd still mention it to your doctor or PD at your next visit just to be safe, especially if you're eating a lot of it or have any gestational concerns. Most mums I know eat it without issues, just remember to wash the outside well before cutting.
I heard it’s better not to eat because it’s cooling. For me, I tried to avoid especially during the first trimester.
