Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

Ok just for 411,,,(and to make myself feel better too) What have been your pregnancy "don't's" that have turned into your personal "do's"

Ok hear goes mine.....

1. love my sara lee turkey!

2. have had chocolate everyday at least in a bite size.

3. could not leave the coffee completely! - switched to de-caf then just quit! 3 months ago (yeah..I'm proud of that...I was an adict !)

4. ate sushi!!!

5. forgot to take my vitamins at least 1 a week.


(OK NOW THAT IT'S IN A LIST I FEEL BAD)

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

I am eating meat. That is pretty much the biggest change

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

1. I have had 2 glasses of wine during my pregnancy.

2. I have eaten chocolate, but I was never told that anything was wrong with it.

3. Last week I did forget and ate fresh mozzarella.

4. I am 39 weeks and still eat peanuts. My Dr. said it was fine.

5. I have had my hair colored twice.

and you know what, I don't feel guilty for any of it!!!

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

WoW,,,,Am I really the only bad pg woman in the world???

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

I eat chocolate when I feel like it.

I drink diet soda about 2X a week.

I ate a hot dog and a bologna sandwich twice.

NO GUILT!

I have a medium DD coffee in the morning only
I eat cold cuts once a week or so
I have eaten feta cheese a few times
I eat bleu cheese dressing here and there

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

I ate ONLY bagels for about 3 months straight, 3 meals a day (sometimes 4!) when I had my morning sickness!

I am steadily working my way through a box of chocolate donuts!

Cold cut sandwiches... eat them occasionally... I have never wanted them so bad in all my life!

Let me think... I am sure there's more!

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

I agree with johnsae that I don't consider myself "bad", so here goes:

1. I've had a couple of glasses of champage and a belleni on my mom's bday.

2. I have eaten deli meats

3. I have eaten pasteurized brie cheese

4. I drink soda.

Because I have been so sick this entire pregnancy (no joke I puked today, 38 weeks, 5 days ) my doctor told me to eat and drink what I can keep down even if it is a "no-no".

And I would LOVE to drink coffee, I am dreaming about an iced coffee after I have this kid, but I know it would turn my stomach.

ETA: and why are people listing CHOCOLATE as a bad thing? I mean, unless you ate it constantly for 9 months I am sure it would NEVER make a difference.

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

Hot dogs, wine, choclate (since when is THAT a no-no??)....a Caesar salad once or twice...I am sure I've committed other "sins" but I don't buy all that anyway.

No you aren't. I don't consider myself "bad" though. Here are mine:

1. I have had probably 6-8 glasses of wine during the course of the pregnancy so far.

2. I eat deli meats (dear lord)

3. I eat massive amounts of chocolate

4. I eat all types of cheeses

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

Hot dogs...deli meats...chocolate...sips of drinks here and there...

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

people mention the chocolate because of the caffeine content but i agree with you .i think if you have things in moderation it should be fine.

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

feta cheese (although pastuerized)
cooked sushi
got highlights
drink coffee everyday

Re: Be honest!!! What have been your no- no's during PG.

1. had a couple of cups of coffee
2. highlights
3. soda once or twice a week
4. cold cuts every once in a while ( i have to give in to my roast beef craving)
5. and at least one piece of chocolate a day
