Hellobee Boards

I have glass of rose champagne yesterday to wash down my runny eggs at brunch and it was divine.

I just an article that reminded me of this thread: https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/what-to-expect-when-youre-drinking-while-pregnant

"I made my dietary decisions with all my extensive pregnancy research in mind, erring on the side of caution and paying attention to my body. Just as I wouldn't seek out a massive Magnolia cupcake if I didn't crave one, I wouldn't pour a glass of sauvignon blanc if I didn't want one of those, either. And when I did desire a glass on vacation or over a nice dinner? I just had the one, and I didn't feel bad about it. I also didn't feel bad when made myself some runny eggs (salmonella can be found in many foods that aren't on an OB-GYN's don't-ingest list; eggs get a bad rap), or drank a cup of coffee every morning once it smelled awesome again (a cup that didn't even hit the 200-milligram mark), or nibbled on sushi from reputable places (I went low on mercury, safe on food prep--just like I would if I weren't pregnant). My body, my informed choices."

I didn't restrict any food or beverages. I just was a bit more selective than I would have normally been in terms of where I ate.

I didnt' find it challenging to avoid alcohol, when not pregnant I have at most a glass of wine every few months. But I did have a beer when I ate some sushi.

I had unpasteurized honey by accident a few times at whole foods. whoops! I mini freaked out when I asked and found out it was raw. I also didn't know about soft serve in the beginning and had a few chick-fil-a milkshakes. I'm too much of a worry wart with this being my first to do anything knowingly. I wish I could relax like you all though!

lets seeeeee: had a bit of wine, have had 2 hot dogs so far, a couple deli sandwiches, soft serve/frozen yogurt quite a few times, tuna a couple times, a coffee everyday (I just make sure to keep my caffeine under 200mg/day). Have kind of been avoiding soft cheeses (except bleu cheese dressing here and there), but as someone else said unpasteurized cheeses are hard to come across in the US. The only real things I've been strict about avoiding are raw meat/fish/eggs

I have been drinking more iced coffees than I should (every other day) but it's because I have bad insomnia again and need it during the day. I really need to stop this vicious sleepless cycle. I also am loving chili cheese hot dogs from Fuddruckers.
