diet for pregnancy?

[krissy0217]

I am 7 weeks 1 day today and I would like to know if I still need to eat fatty foods or can I cut them out all together.? Does the baby need them too?

Well balanced small meals, 6 times a day, is the best for your baby. I eat my 3 main meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) with a protein, veggie, and/or grain.. brown rice, chicken breast, salmon, broccoli, quinoa (I buy steamable bags of rice and vegetables, cuts prep time down so much)... things like that! 3 other small meals in between (celery
with peanut butter and a glass of green tea, grapefruit with a cup of yogurt, crackers and
almond butter, chopped up mixed fruit.) I cook, a lot.
And I fix up snacks for the weeks time because I
have a 3 year old who likes to snack all day long
throughout his meals.. I learned with my first
pregnancy, it's so much better and easier to eat
healthy so you don't feel lethargic throughout your
day.. the healthier you eat, the more energy you will have.

Pretty much eat as healthy as you can and drink a lot of water. Water does more wonders than you think.

Doc told me to eat what I could keep down if I was nauseous from morning sickness. Just don't eat raw fish or non pasteurized stuff. And can't eat feta cheese. And ease off the caffeine if you drink it.
