First pregnancy and im honestly overwhelmed with all the dos and donts people are telling me. Everyone has a different list. Can someone tell me which foods i should genuinely avoid?
Our elders also told me to limit papaya and pineapple in early months, so I just avoided them to be safe. My doctor said normal home food is perfectly fine otherwise. I ate simple and didn't overthink it.
Stay away from raw or undercooked eggs and meat, unpasteurised milk and cheese, too much caffeine and outside cut fruits. I followed this both times. Cook well, wash well and you're mostly safe.
With my sugar issue I also had to skip a lot of sweets and refined stuff. So honestly the list can differ person to person. Best to get a personalised list from your gynac or dietician.
