Im still drinking coffee, i think you can have up to 3 glasses/cups of caffine drink a day or so I was told. Other than that just avoiding the normal, deli meats etc. I avoided everything with Kobe and everything went wrong so this time Im a bit relaxed. My midwife said the biggest things to avoid were chicken that had been sitting around like the indian and chinese you get at malls and also sushi unless they made it from scratch for you.

Hey,
I am careful with what i am eating but am not extremely strict. I don't eat seafood, raw/rare meat, cheese and just really watch other things.
Coffee mmmm..... (dribbles) well being that i am such an addict  . The first 3 months i couldn't stand it. Now i am having 2-3 cups a day which for me is really good as before i was pregnant i was have 4-6

I am pretty much avoiding EVERYTHING, but then that is just my anal personality  I even spend days wondering if something I have eaten is safe...

Hi,
I am generally pretty careful with what I eat and avoid things like soft cheeses and ready made salads from supermarkets etc. The one thing that I really miss since being pregnant is sushi - I can't wait to be able to eat that again. I have never been a coffee fan so I can't answer that question.

Oh, and not a coffee drinker at all, but I have been avoiding diet coke which is my #1 caffeine addiction. But I craved Coke with maya and she turned out OK.

i'm avoiding everything on the food safety list, and any chicken that isn't prepared by myself or hubby. i just can't bring myself to eat anything i think might possibly be dodgy. i'm also a bit anal though

I must admit, I have had the yolks on my eggs turn up slightly soft and I didn't send them back!
I also caved to a KFC craving the other day, I bought it, got it home, nuked the living daylights out of it (nuked burger not so fun but......). I won't be making a habit of that but thought if I nuked it it wouldn't be so bad....*waits for someone to tell her off*
I can't wait for Salmon and Avocado sushi! I've been joking that when the baby comes and people want to visit...if they have no sushi with them then they don't get to see the baby!

I'm still having coffee, but mine are never very strong, about 50/50 milk to actual coffee ! And only one in a day, first thing in the morning. No raw seafood, although I have indulged in the occasional bit of ham, once was before I really "knew" and once I was just being naughty  Still having eggs, sometimes runny - but always hot hot hot, and usually cooked by me or hubby. I have NEVER been a fan of KFC though, so wasn't an issue

I went 'off' coffee when the morning sickness hit, and now just have a cup every few days or week. No decaf for me, though!!
I've cut surface-ripened cheeses out of my diet (but crave processed cheese squares so chow down on them now... maybe I'm not as anal about it as I originally thought!), I don't order ANY deli food (but I once worked for a caterer who said no-one should order anything from a supermarket deli!) and don't miss it at all so that's no biggie, don't eat cold meats (but pregnancy has turned me right off all meats so I don't miss them either), and here's the toughie for me... SUSHI.
I miss my sushi. I love the idea of letting visitors see the baby if they bring a plate of it over! Thanks for that one!

I went off coffee for 4 months. Now I drink a half shot mocha at work and an instant a day on the weekends. I've been avoiding the shellfish, raw egg, sushi, deli and cold meats. I still eat NZ soft cheese occasionally if its freshly bought and pasteurised. Oh and if I've bought hot meat for lunch I give it a good blast in the microwave. I miss wine and ham!
