Is it safe to eat spicy foods while 8 weeks pregnant?




Alicia Abs


I'm 8 weeks along and all I am craving is hot fries. Can it harm anything if I eat them? I just need to know so I don't go near it. Thank you!


Answer
Spicy food is fine :) Although you may pay for it a little later with heartburn! When eating foods, just make sure it's cooked thoroughly. Also talk to your doctor about what you should and should not be eating during pregnancy. Good luck!!!

8 weeks pregnant and starving?




Charis


cereal for breakfast at 8 am
breakfast sandwich for a snack at 10am (craving for d&d, right next to work)
small serving of rice, veggies and chicken for lunch at 1pm
cup of popcorn for snack at 1:45.
Its 2:20 now and I am starving!!
Is anyone else pregnant and this hungry?
!



Answer
I was starving during my pregnancies, too. What I did was "graze"--eat just about all day long, but small portions each time. I'd have carrots here, an apple there, a sandwich here, a bowl of pasta there, etc.

If you're hungry, then go ahead and eat! Just, try to make sure that you're eating as much 'good' foods as possible (not only are they better for you, but they're more filling and sustain you longer).

Getting a little worried. About 8 weeks late?




Metalli'fu


Ok so i havent gotten my period for 8 weeks now. My stomach is getting hard, im VERY emotional essp with my boyfriend. Ive had freaquent headaches and now urination, i get cramps and sometimes near my bellybutton, my lower back hurts alot, and get very nacious out of nowhere. Ive taken about 4 pregnancy test and all negative. (havent taken one in a week) Im sexually active. Could maybe the sex be delaying my period? Please help, im scared i might be and im not on prenatal pills,i dont want to do harm to the baby.


Answer
8 weeks! Wow, well i would consider yourself pregnant. Sometimes pregnancy tests are weird for women and says negative but you actually are pregnant. If your not on any birth control you could be pregnant.
Go to the doctors office for a more accurate blood test. Maybe you could get a positive there. Sometimes, it comes out negative. If it does, then ask if you could have an ultrasound. If not wait another week and go back for another test.
I would just recommend getting prenatal vitamins. You could get them at Walmart for like less then $10 that's what i did.
Pregnancy symptoms:
Month 1 of Pregnancy
fatigue
morning sickness
excess saliva
frequent urination
lower abdominal pressure
depression
A woman may crave certain foods and become completely adverse to others that didn't bother her before. She may become very irritable, cry a lot or be overjoyed.

Month 2 of Pregnancy
swelling of hands and feet
varicose veins
constipation
heartburn
indigestion
flatulence
bloating
heavier breasts
goose bumps on the areola
slight whitish vaginal discharge
waistline expansion
change in the size of the uterus
Month 3 of Pregnancy
During the 9th to the 13th week, the nausea and vomiting have should have eased or ceased. First trimester symptoms that usually occur during the third month include:
more energy
less urination time
a slight increase in vaginal discharge
additional visible veins on the body
faintness
dizziness
stretch marks
change in sex drive (feeling sexier or not wanting to participate at all)
cramping after an orgasm
a corpus luteum cysT
inability to urinate
a new sense of calmness.

Now, your 8 weeks late. So 8 weeks ago you were expecting your period but it didn't arrive right? Well, to find out your due date you add two weeks to that or if you know when the first day of your last period was you use that date and enter it in the due date calculator i put in the source box.
Since i don't know when your last period began I am going to just add 2 weeks to your last missed period when you would have got pregnant. So you would be about 10 weeks along now and your baby would be due sometime in mid April. So i would suggest getting on prenatals till either you get your period or you have a positive test just so the baby gets what it needs especially during the first trimester. Good luck!

Food poisoning/stomach flu at 8 weeks. Worried about baby!?




mindblower


I am 8 weeks pregnant. I had a bad bout of vomiting two days ago but I thought that was nausea-related until the diarrhea started and had a slight fever at 100F. All the symptoms have now subsided butI am now sure that it was a case of food poisoning/stomach flu and now worried about the health of my baby since I read so much advice against having food poisoning in pregnancy esp. the first trimester. Has anyone had food poisoning during first trimester and successfully gave birth to a healthy baby?


Answer
Oh yeah, hate food poisoning, espeacially when your newley prego.. I was probably 10 weeks prego when i got the flu really bad, i could swear it was morning sickness except for all the other flu like symtoms... not fun times... I think as long as your fever didnt go over 103 your okay... I was at 102 degrees with the flu. 7-1/2 months later I had a happy and very healthy baby girl. Good luck!

PS I had food poisoning numerous times during that pregnancy and had it in all 3 trimesters, twice in my first!
I wouldnt worry too much.
