So confused ??

Question

So the Dr gave me a list of things I can’t eat. 
No potato ? 
No tortillas ? 
No rice ? 
No turkey ? 
No cereal ? 
No coffee ? 
Like Really ?? 
I’m having a hard time to find what to eat. 
All the above is all I eat all the time.

Answer

Rice, tortillas, and potatoes along with many other foods are high glycemic. Are you at risk or have diabetes? These food will raise your blood sugar.

Answer

Seriously!? My doctor told me to eat whatever I can keep down or whatever sounds good throughout the entire first trimester.

Answer

Do you have a high BMI above normal?

Answer

I eat all of that 😍 gotta way what you can.

Answer

Potato is a new one to me.  Did they say why?

Answer

Why no cereal?!

Answer

The only one that makes sense is turkey, but only if they were referring to deli meat (which can still be eaten if warmed up). I’d ask for clarification

Answer

I've never heard of any of these and this is my 4th in 6 years.

Answer

They didn't explain why? That's a lot of restrictions.

Answer

I’ve eaten all of that and can’t find anywhere that says not too, except for the coffee- moderation is key there. The only thing my doctor said was limit caffeine to no more than 2 cups of coffee a day. And to watch for hidden caffeine in dark pop, chocolate etc. Turkey is fine if it’s real turkey, if it’s deli meat - go for the stuff with no preservatives because nitrates are bad for the baby and heat it up to make sure there’s no listeria. Otherwise, no raw eggs, no bean spouts, only cooked throughly red meat, no unpasteurized dairy- which would be hard to find anyways- most dairy in a grocery store is pasteurized, limit your sushi/fish intake and watch your refined sugars intake. I’m sure you’ll be fine eating any of that list in moderation. Mamas got eat! 😊
