Re: What is one thing that you are doing even though your not suppose to do it now that your pregnant?

  • Let's see....
    - Eggs over medium
    - Cold cut sandwiches
    - Sugary drinks (since water makes me gag though it was all I drank before PG)
    - semi hot baths
    - way too many sweets (seems to be the only food that agrees with morning sickness)
    - still taking BP meds (per docs orders)

    Sigh.

    Snarkily correcting people's grammar.

    But today I also had caprese with fresh mozzarella and some Caesar salad. And it was delicious. And I'm about to go wash my face and back (thanks ktfu bacne) with salicylic acid soap.

    If it's the real deal, there's raw egg in Caesar dressing.

    You're probably fine-- most restaurants don't risk using a true recipe anymore, or they would have had a raw/undercooked warning symbol of some sort.

    What's wrong with fresh mozzarella? Is that a thing too?
  • I read fresh and unpasteurized cheeses are off limits. It's not stopping me though.

    When I make my own Caesar dressing I do the real deal with raw egg, but this was catered so you're right about it probably not being the real deal.
  • I haven't given up coffee, either. I still reduced how much I have daily but I refuse to give up coffee!!! Lol.
  • please don't scoop the litter! this is one thing that could seriously endanger your child. 

    not that i'm a saint, i basically do everything else everyone listed here.  




  • Once a week I have the worlds tiniest sip of DHs beer (this has only been during the past 3 weeks). It's research into my months-long debate of what should my first post-pregnancy beer be!

    Other than that, I can't think of anything else...
  • I guess my cheat is caffeine and my hot tub, even though it's turned down to roughly 100 degrees it makes my back feel amazing after a 5min float.

    I thought that soft cheeses that have rinds (like brie) are no good, but figured fresh mozz is ok because no rind...?
  • Having a hard time giving up cold cuts. So ham ham ham...and smoked salmon, undercooked eggs, had raw sushi once (and will likely have again), daily half-cup of coffee, and have the occasional teensy adult bev. And still using all of my anti-acne stuff (benzoyl peroxide, low % salicylic acid face wash, and sulfur cream). I'm with @kellealward that our culture is too strict on pregnant women! This thread is proof that it's too hard to remember/keep track of all the stuff that we're supposed to avoid.
  • I had a Cesar salad today. Apparently, that's a no-no.
  • Other than alcohol and hot tubs, I've basically given up trying to avoid stuff. I survived the first trimester, and everything else just makes me feel paranoid! I'm not into everything I'm supposed to avoid, but poached eggs, smoked salmon, way more fish than is recommended (I stay away from the mercury heavy stuff), paying no attention to cheese types... I'm hungry all the time, there's no time to pay attention to what's going in my pie-hole!

    Unless the dressing was authentic you should be ok. Authentic/homemade Caesar dressing usually has raw egg which is why you wouldn't be allowed to have it, but unless you make it that way yourself then you probably won't find it made like that.
  • I have been cleaning the litter box since day 1 of finding out we were expecting. Its just one thing my hubby wont do, and if I force him he won't do a good job at making sure its clean.

    My cats are strictly indoor and all the research I have done on this subject suggests that you mostly need to worry about the litter box if your cats are indoor outdoor or strictly outdoor and not to garden if that's the case. My source: Humane Society.
  • Theres goat cheese on my salad today. And I really do not care.

    The only stipulation my OB put on soft cheese, was the same for all-- just get a pasteurized version, so no true imports. Most cheeses in US and Canada are routinely pasteurized and a quick label check will verify it.
