new and have questions!

Hi, I just found out this week that I am pg. I have been lurking the boards and just wanted to introduce myself. I went to get my bloodwork done today and was given some sample prenatals and made an appt for a sono/dr visit in november but they really didnt tell me anything else? I asked what i should be doing and was told to take the vitamins and wait to talk to the dr. at my appt. do any of you think that i should be watching certain foods and things at this point? i have no idea what i am doing so any advice is helpful so i dont drive myself crazy! thx!

Re: new and have questions!

Firstly congrats!!!

And second, I think you'll find different answers to what you can and cannot eat, so I think its up to you and your doctor to decide. They say caffeine should be kept to 300 mg a day, I think its basically like a cup of coffee? not sure though. I hear cold cuts aren't good, and hot dogs, but personally I have eaten them. Alcohol is something I personally won't mess with.

Some say everything in moderation, and some won't eat any of certain foods, so you have to find whats good for you! HTH

Hi! Welcome and congrats!! A happy and healthy 9 months to you!! Chat Icon

Take it easy on the caffeine, cold cuts and enjoy everything in moderation! Take your vitamins every day and try to enjoy this as much as possible!
