are prawn crackers safe in pregnancy?

[lilianna]

im hoping for a takeaway tonight and was wondering if prawn crackers are safe in pregnancy.

I'm going to complain. I want a refund!

I can understand how that feels, i second guessed myself all the way through both my pgs and only had one mc. one was more than enough. 5 must be awful

How awful to have 5 miscarriages. However, this book does sound rather strange, and the information is wrong. Just thought it was worth pointing out as people get very paranoid and guilty in pregnancy if they think they have eaten the wrong thing.

5 MC and you are still sane, I take my hat off to you.

I only had one and a full term and I still think of the other little lamb despite having my DS, so well done you for staying sane.

If I went by the book and consultant I would have to avoid,
Peas
Soy foods
Saccharin
Peanut Butter (yummmmmmmyy)
Spinach
Soda
Salami ( yeah, right!) I love it.
Frankfurters

The list is endless.......

Peas are good for pregnant women as they contain folic acid. The contraceptive stuff sounds like rubbish.

I'm not sane........ Whatever gave you that idea

Ah, soy is different to soy sauce (which is nearly all water!). I have seen peas promoted as a fertility-booster (valuable amino acids plus folic acid).

How are you now Peepee?

THATS IT THE EFFIN BOOK GOES ON THE BONFIRE TONIGHT

Why spinach? Why soda water?

I got half way through pg number 2 (post mc) when they came out with the prohibition on peanut butter.

Does it prohibit bonfires PP???

Peepee, I totally admire your sense of humour having been through what you have! I hope you didn't take my comments the wrong way.

I'm starting one just for the book. Will sort out the consultnat on Tuesday!

Peepee , there was some research published recently that suggested you should avoid soya products if you are experiencing difficulties trying to concieve.

How are you getting on anyway?

You guys sound as though you know what you are talking about. Any chance you could put a list of foods together for me and hopefully it'll work.

AF has just stopped after the last m/c in sept. DH and I are at it again I'll just have to wait and see.

Fingers crossed for you!

Have you seen a specialist in recurrent miscarriages? Is that who your consultant is? I presume you've had tests to try and find out why it keeps happening?
Can't imagine how horrible it must be

Hi

Spinach is also on Peepee's list of foods to avoid - anyone know anything about that?
I've been eating it once a wk as one of my "green leafy vegs".

Thanks
Lucy

Ithink spinach is only a no no if you are trying to conceive. It's OK if you are already pregnant!

I live on peanut butter, soy sauce, peas and spinach (not altogether - mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm). I would avoid sacharrin just because it is gross and salami just because I dont like it very much.

seriously, I love spinach and peas and we eat stir fry type food at least twice a week, I have peanut butter toast every day - no probs concieving. Have had 1 m/c but it was nothing to do with diet.

peepee you are funny though.

JUST KEEP EATING PLEASEEEEEEEEEE

EAT LOADS AND LOADS OF WHATEVER MAKES YOU HAPPY.

PEEPEE IS NOT SANE - I can confirm that!!

Hehee! got my own back!!

That's not nice..........
Anyway, u know what they say....It takes one 2 know one.....
