When I felt good enough to have something, I ate it. Everything in moderation! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609389 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 13:48:42 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 609389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup! and my 2nd baby has less/no problems even though i didn't follow anything (ate sushi, rare steak, oysters, egg yolk, caffeine, deli meats, etc).</p> <p>my 1st baby had eczema/skin problems and was semi-colicky and had acid reflux and has a pb allergy. my 2nd baby seems to have zero issues so far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609377 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 13:28:17 +0000 Dandelion 609377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coffee, sushi, raw cookie dough, sub sandwiches, not taking prenatals...I did all that with this one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609370 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 13:15:19 +0000 T-Mom 609370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: I was also terrible with my vitamins, the shame! I have no idea why it was so hard for me.</p> <p>I also ate subway once a week. I just figured that the subway near my work was so so busy, there was no way the stuff wasn't fresh. I also craved it like crazy the first pregnancy and was so tortured... couldn't resist the 2nd time around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609298 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 11:59:52 +0000 sylvie_b 609298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sushi, oysters, decaf coffee, soft cheeses, a glass of champagne.....yep, I broke these "rules," (with my doc's blessing) and loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609280 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 11:53:22 +0000 mrs. wagon 609280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>uh, yeah. mommy shame. I was SO not consistent with my prenatal vitamins (even though I switched to gummies!) and I consumed caffeine (stayed within the recommended guidelines though) and sushi (only from places I trusted, aka expensive places, and only a few bites) and alcohol (just a sip here and there). Oh and I did have deli meat quite a few times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-break-more-rules-during-your-2nd-pregnancy#post-609148 Sun, 03 Mar 2013 10:29:29 +0000 autumnlove 609148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I followed all the pregnancy guidelines with my first. I haven't been as strict this time and I've had sushi a few times and more caffeine. </p>
