Answer
Hi there,
Congrats on your pregnancy. I wouldn't worry about miscarriage as it was caused by your drop beat ex!! Doesn't mean it will happen again.
What foods to eat a lot of:
*There isn't really foods to eat a lot of. Make sure your getting enough vitamins and minerals from your vegies. Iron which can be found in leafy greens and red meat. Make sure your getting an adequate calcium intake which can be found in dairy and broccoli. I wouldn't eat too much fruit as it has a lot of sugar.
What foods to avoid.
*Avoid take aways, processed foods, Deli meats, seafood like big fish- small fish are fine its the bigger ones that have higher levels of mercury. Avoid sugar and foods with a lot of yeast as that can cause gestational diabetes and yeast infections. The reason not to eat foods that could have bacteria such as deli meats,processed,etc is because it can contain listeria which can harm the baby, make sure you eat no raw foods like raw meat and raw eggs,etc.
What exercises to do and avoid.
*Unless advised otherwise you can do light walking but don't overwork yourself and you can swim but again dont get tired and overwork yourself. I wouldn't stretch or do weights,etc.
What things i should buy.
*My first thing i bought was a pregnancy book. It was like a bible for the first trimester when you have so many worries. Than you find your body gets used to the pregnancy and you know what your feeling by the 2nd trimester but the book is still there as a reference. I wouldn't go buying anything until the 12th week. I know its really hard. I recommend getting your cot and change table first. Than you can set it up and put the mattress in it get your cot sheets and cover,etc. You can than get a box of nappies there ready and the powder,etc. Get your baby monitor and whatever else is needed change bag and pram last. Plus car seat.etc most places have a list of what your going to need. Have a baby shower and you should get a few things that you will need.
Is there books for men to learn to care for babies if so whats a good book.
I recon the men could just read a parenting book. As its for parents and it can't hurt for you to both read it so your on the same page.
Is there a way to relax daily (i have anxieties)
Meditation. There isn't much else you can do but learn to be calm and breathe. I have it also and have had a few complications but you learn to relax.
Yes you can get tablets for morning sickness there should be one in chemist, dr can prescribe it and vitamin b6 is good too.
What all should I buy.
Not sure what you mean but i suppose i can think of a few things you need.
*Cot (Some people get a bassinet but they will only use it for 3 months and its a waste of money some people let their babies co sleep where they sleep with them but i find that too dangerous plus they need to learn to be in their own bed)
*Change table with a change mat.
*Baby wash you can get one that is baby wash, shampoo and conditioner all in one, powder, baby wipes, nappies for newborns, nappy rash cream, thermometer for babies and baby nurofen and panadol but get that just before your babies born, some people use baby oil,etc.
*baby bath tub unless you have a bath
*face washers and baby towels you will go through a lot of these
*a bottle sterilizer especially if you plan on bottle feeding but you will also need it if you breast feed and want to express and give them water
*bottles. Dummies just a pack so you have them spare. You can get 0-3 months.
*Pram
*car seat
*they recommend having a low watt lamp for late night feeds and changes
*some people choose to get a nursing pillow
*cot sheets and cover. The baby won't use a pillow or a the cover but they use a sleeping bag
*pram blankets, swaddles, baby sleeping bag^
*clothes
*baby bag
There are heaps of things you need to buy but those are just a few things. You will probably find that once you actually go to the baby section or a baby store you will find the things that you do and don't need. Probably wouldn't hurt to take a friend thats pregnant or someone thats recently had a baby because they can advise you on what you do need and what you won't use.

Pregnancy and foods you eat?
moekitten
Is there any woman that has slipped and eaten something that supposed to not be healthy? Lets just say you crave pork rinds and bought them and ate them. Does it matter? I have slipped and eaten junk food a couple of times. It's hard to eat just fruits, Vegetables and grain when you crave something like pork rinds, tortilla chips, and a little chocolate. Things like that taste good. I heard woman loose weight after the pregnancy is over. Well, I haven't gained too much weight at least I hope and I am trying real hard to avoid junk food but it is so hard. I slip a lot of times, has any woman went through this? And if so tell me your food story's about when you were pregnant and the foods you ate that you craved. If your pregnant right now tell me the story's about the foods you eat that you crave right now. I was wondering though is a little junk food to bad if you don't eat it everyday?
Cause I don't eat junk food all the time just when I can't buy no fruits or vegetables to snack on. Right now I am snacking on pork rinds and drinking orange juice. So is a little junk food bad? I eat healthy foods too. I love vegetables and fruits to snack on. I am 23 weeks pregnant
with a little girl. And this is my first pregnancy.
Answer
Are you kidding?? OF COURSE you can eat junk food!!!! Just LIMIT yourself! Ate french fries like a fein with son... ate ice cream like a junky with first born girl..... ate chinese food like an addict with second girl.
