Pregnancy rules

Have any of you eaten food that the pregnancy books tell you not too ? My mum convinced me to eat Devon today but I now regret it, she said back when she was having kids she lived of Devon

I've always ate healthy. So I actually added junk food to my menu within moderation. I love lunch meat and my doctor said it is fine.

No, of she lived off it and you are done I see no reason your baby wouldn't be as well. I'm pretty much free to eat just about anything I want except have alcohol  or drugs. My midwife even said I could have sushi.

Im not entirely sure what devon is  but from what I got by googling it I wouldnt be too worried. And you only ate it once its not like your are eating it 24/7 aslong as you dont feel sick I think you should be ok. But you could ask your dr to be sure

Yup! Funny I was actually talking to my mum about it and she said its rediculous how many rules they put on a pregnant womans diet now. Understandably now there is more known bacteria and such but my dr told me unless its really unsafe  to just eat anything I want because im so underweight. even lunch meat if I so choose
