First time TTC, what can/can’t I do/eat during early pregnancy?

Question

I test later this week. But I don’t want to risk anything, so could you list all of the things I shouldn’t be doing or eating during pregnancy? What’s not safe?
Obviously no alcohol, smoking, etc. but what are some of the things that aren’t as obvious?

Answer

I didn’t change a thing about my diet. Drank 2-4 cups of coffee a day and had my glass(es) of wine after work. I didn’t want my life to stop because I didn’t know how long ttc would take. Luckily, it only took 3 months. 
Good luck.

Answer

When pregnant they say only up to 200 mg of caffeine a day. They also say watch out for listeria (cold delivery meat, but if you google listeria most recalls for it are actually from fruits and vegetables). If you HAVE to clean out a cat litter box do it within 24 hours of feces if it's a outside cat or one that hunts/eats raw meat. Tylenol should pretty much be your go to pill. There's so much they say not to eat/do so it really depends on what you currently eat/do. Start a prenatal immediately! They're perfectly fine to take while ttc! I loved the book What to Expect BEFORE You're Expecting!

Answer

I didn’t change anything until I got a BFP. I did at the very beginning of TTC, but I started to experience horrible anxiety because of the pressure of trying to control my fertility. It took me and my SO almost 1 year to conceive, and limiting my diet for something that took a while was just not necessary for me physically and bad for me mentally.

Answer

Why don’t you google it?

Answer

You can start prenatals. Keep track of your ovulation and relax.
