Hi all…

I’m just wondering if you know of any non-obvious do’s and don’ts during pregnancy. Apart from the obvious list in NHS website.

For example, I ate a salad today made with ceaser dressing (just shop bought bottle). Then when I was scrolling through some pregnancy apps earlier, a thing came up about not eating fresh ceaser dressing due to the egg in it?! That is just something I would never even of thought of tbh. Which is scary as that’s my go to salad when eating out.

Anyway it seems to be a minefield out there with the things you can and cannot do. So what surprising information would you give a first time expecting mother that she may not already know?
