Your not supposed to take panadol or any sort of tablets like that are you?

Gosh there is so much to know!

[LaDeeDa]

but no nurofen or anti inflamatories....
no deep heat or anything like that...

have you got an pg books..... they normally list all the no no's ..... and there is a few of em ...LOL

[Serenitylee]

I haven't got any books yet. Planning on getting one this week though so will try and pick a good one which helps with foods to eat and not to eat.

I get bad Sinus so i went to take a Sudafed tablet but was told it's a no no

[LaDeeDa]

yep none of those but you can take polaramine but it makes you drowsy
and no cough mixture either...LOL

Kaz Cook's Up The Duff is really good and really funny and then there is the old fave What to Expect - but thats a little more fact orientated

[Serenitylee]

That book name is pretty funny!

You can still have flake once a week. I used to have a couple of fish bites or a small piece of flake.

I'm not sure if these have been mentioned yet but you need to avoid:

* Cold chook unless you cooked it yourself at home & refrigerated it soon after & eat it within 24 hours.
* Any pre prepared salad with a creamy dressing - like coleslaw or potato salad.
* Any salad in a restaurant or cafe or at a friends house if it has mayo on it or any creamy dressing that could contain raw egg.
* Dips at a party if vegie pieces are being served with them or dips when they have been sitting around for a while.
* Eggs that aren't cooked through - so no soft eggs.

In regard to caffeine remember that cola has it in it as do a lot of energy drinks so try to limit those as well.

Just remembered one other thing. I also avoided all salads & dressings from fast food places as I did not know if the veg had been washed thoroughly & I know that in some of them the dressings just sit on the benches. If I did have takeaway I had either a cheeseburger, fillet of fish or a chicken burger with cheese but nothing else. Most people don't go that extreme but I wasn't taking any chances after 3 losses.

Panadol is fine. You can even use Panadeine & Panadeine Forte if you need to during your pregnancy.

I went and saw an OBS last night and he warned me about watermelon and cantelope etc in NSW as there was a Selmonella outbreak with it last year I love it!!!

Ah well, something I will just have to do without!
