My husband and I are planning to start a family soon. I'm trying to prepare my body for pregnancy. Are there any specific foods or drinks I should avoid to improve my chances of conceiving?
My mother-in-law advised avoiding sesame seeds and raw papaya while trying to conceive. But my doctor said the most important thing is reducing junk food and eating balanced meals.
I heard we should avoid too much raw food or outside salads when trying, did anyone else's doc suggest that? I'm currently trying to eat more cooked veggies.
Honestly, try to avoid survival-mode coffee quantities, haha! Limit the caffeine and junk food, though I know how hard it is when you just want a quick snack.
I know how stressful it is when you are trying to conceive and worrying about every bite. Just try to limit highly processed foods and artificial sweeteners, and try to keep your mind calm.
I had a few issues while trying, so my doctor made me cut out processed foods and high-sugar items immediately. Please consult a specialist to see if you need specific dietary changes based on your health.
