Just got my positive test, im around 5 weeks. My MIL keeps giving me a long list of foods to avoid and honestly im confused what is true and what is just old talk. Can someone share what we should actually skip in these first weeks?
My family told me to skip raw papaya and very strong heaty foods in early months. I just ate simple home food. But for your specific list, your gynac knows best for your body.
Avoid raw papaya, raw pineapple in excess, unpasteurised stuff, raw eggs and uncooked meat. Also limit too much caffeine and street food due to hygiene. Stick to fresh home cooked food and you are mostly safe.
Besides the usual unsafe foods, I also had to cut sweets and sugary drinks heavily because of my sugar. So it can be personal too. Best to get a diet list from your doctor.
