What not to eat while pregnant?

Answer 1

You want to avoid fish. It is full of Mercury and can harm your babies brain development. It does have good fat in it but the risk of mercury poisining is to high to risk it. You can get vitamina that have the good things that fish have but without the mercury. Look for DHA suppliments. A great person to talk to about all your prenatal questions is a Midwife. They have more time to really talk to you unlike a doctor. They are also great for labor. I prefer a Midwife for labor over a doctor as they really listen to you. You also do not have to delive with a Midwife to be able to see one. They are happy to do prenatals along with a doctor. I loved my Midwife and I am sure you would also if you were interested. They are full of great info and really see you as a person and not just another sick person. (witch pergnancy is not a sickness) If you have trouble finding one (if you are interested) do a Google search for local midwifes in your area. If you still do not find one then contact the closest one you can find and they should be able to help you find one closer. Good luck with your baby and remember to stay away from the fish.
