Question

It's a first time for me to get pregnant and I have no idea about what to eat and what should I avoide, my Dr said to eat anything it's ok but my friends said there are something's that I have to avoide can anyone help me please?? ??

Answer

Have spinach!! Cook it in olive oil, and I like to add pieces of bacon (after I cook the bacon first). You will get lots of protein, frolic acid and some iron! Great little snack my OBGYN said is great for the baby! Have fruits and vegetables, plus try to have proteins as much as you can. I love having raw almonds and walnuts on hand, great for the baby too. Sweet potatoes or yams are a superfood for the baby, I have those too! I make lots of smoothies, I put a protein powder in, milk, frozen fruit like bananas, strawberries or blueberries, I throw spinach and leafy greens in, peanut butter and it is delicious and nutritious. Give the baby everything it needs! Prenatal vitamins once a day are mandatory, it needs that frolic acid. I also work for LabCorp so J know all about the testing and deficiencies that can exist if you have any specific questions. :) Good luck!

Answer

Are you already pregnant? Becuase if so don't eat just anything ! You can't have red meat unless it is completely well done. No sushi and no fish high in mercury. Tuna is ok but only 2 servings a week and one can equals two servings. Also soft cheeses you want to avoid as well. Just eat tons of veggies and fruit :)

Answer

You can eat meat- just be smart. Don't eat things that aren't pasteurized like a small number of cheeses (not a huge deal in the US bc we pasteurize 99% of our cheeses) and wash all raw items.

Avoid significant quantities of alcohol but you can still participate in things like communion wine if that is part of your faith.

Eat balanced meals and get your green veggies! Also take a prenatal vitamin and make sure you get 1000--1200 of folic acid.
