Diet, foods to avoid

Written by Aunty Stretchmarks on March 15th, 2009

You!  Dont even think about it

Well ladies, lets forget about all that damned freedom shall we! Pregnancy has more rules than a stimulus package. OK lets kick off the Spanish inquisition.
Fun! NOOOOOOOOOOooooo, lets deal with the good things you will miss if you are anything like me.

  • Alcohol although lets not get totally carried away, my Mum had the odd wine carrying me and I turned out a fat little baby. However if you are tipsy the baby is probably unconscious (as it is smaller) Avoid.
  • Coffee, Caffeine, Energy Drinks, this includes Redbull. Caffeine has been linked to miscarriage, birth defects and SIDS,
  • Artificial Sweeteners You are going to have to read the label here. They are found in soft drinks, deserts, chewing gum and lollies. Avoid completely.
  • Fish and Seafood Opinion varies a little here but my advice is to avoid it. Omega3 are excellent for the baby so I would consider supplements for this. If you are really determined to eat some fish research the possible mercury content and ensure it’s well cooked. Especially avoid sushi and sashimi.
  • Chamomile and other herbal teas can have harmful effects on the baby
  • Peanuts Eating these is thought to possibly make baby allergic, best to avoid
  • Raw or undercooked meat Enough said.
  • Soft cheeses, goats Cheeses, unpasturized milks or cheeses It hurts me to include camembert brie and blue veined.
  • Liver No Pate for you. Vitamin A can be especially dangerous.
  • Honey Actually its quite OK. But don’t feed it to the baby later as there is a small risk of infant botulism
  • Deli Foods These are problematic because of listeria bacteria.
    Processed and sliced meats salami, smoked meats are a NO NO. Skip any foods served from open containers.
  • Pre-prepared salads Eat fresh and make your own
  • Uncooked eggs such as found in hollandaise sauce. Avoid.

Ok thats a big list.. I warned you your civil liberties would be grossly infringed :-)
Eat carefully comrades.

Cheers

    It is also thought that subjecting baby to small amounts of possible allergy-causing foods may help build up resistance to these. Should you be careful about being overcareful and overprotective of baby? Do you want a strong resistant child with small risk of early problems or a child that grows up to need constant care?
