What to eat?

Question

Hi all!! We just found out that we’re expecting on Friday. Now, I’m struggling to know what I can eat! The internet is not clear. Any things you know to avoid? Any good eats? I learned hibiscus tea is a no no and queso dip!

Answer

All foods are fine if they’re not contaminated/out of date. Cold meats are fine, sushi is fine, soft cheese is fine, rare steak is fine, you’re good. Just eat a normal balanced diet and you’re going to be okay. If you’re scared of listeria also don’t eat broccoli, spinach, fruits, ice cream. 😂 Seriously, listeria is not as big of a deal as people want you to think. Even the fear of mercury in fish- honestly you’d have to eat a lot of fish that is probably not a common part of your diet anyway. Why they terrify women into not eating foods is beyond me.

Answer

No raw meat, no drugs, no alcohol. Don't over complicate things. Keep it simple.

Answer

No drugs, no alcohol, and no raw meat. Keep it simple. 
 Queso is fine.
Herbal teas you have to drink large quantities to cause problems.

Answer

Why no queso ?? I ate plenty during my pregnancy with my son😳 you can eat literally anything except raw meat/fish, no alcohol or smoking as other commenter said. Think of other cultures, they don’t change their diet during pregnancy, no reason for you to either (with the exception of the items listed above). Enjoy whatever you want - yes that includes deli meat and mayo;)

Answer

Just eat food it’s not a big deal. Don’t overthink or complicate it. You’ll be ok! Just enjoy it.

Answer

Queso is fine.. I eat it all the time. Don’t read the internet. Deli meat and cooked sushi is totally fine. Here is a list of safe medication and best to worst fish.

Answer

Congrats!
Avoid raw meat and shellfish, no unpasteurized dairy, no alcohol, wash fruits and vegetables well. You really don’t have to change much.
