Scared I am hurting my baby
Help! This is my first pregnancy. I had to go through fertility treatments to get pregnant. I’m 9 weeks tomorrow.
I constantly feel nauseous and can barely eat anything. I am just eating cheese and crackers, yogurt, plain pasta, bagels… basically just bland carbs. I have had a few panic attacks that I’m not getting enough nutrients and that I’m going to kill my baby with my diet. I am not diagnosed with anxiety and have not had a panic attack in over 3 years.
Typically I eat a lot of fruits and veggies in a day. I try to grow my own food, eat organic, and generally eat a very healthy diet.
Yesterday I decided to push myself to eat better. We went to a local farm to table cafe and I ended up on the floor vomiting in the bathroom. This is the first time I have actually vomited. Today I’m back to eating all carbs and no more vomiting.
Am I hurting my baby? What should I do to get the nutrients? I’m just so terrified my baby is going to die because of my diet 😭
I am taking prenatals
