Pregnancy & Japanese Food?

kelynn1985

Okay, I have really been craving Japanese, so my hubby and I decided to have a "date night" and go out to Dinner. I am not going to eat any sushi, but I was wondering if the chicken and shrimp with the rice and veggies was okay for me to eat? Please any advice is needed!

Answer
Make sure to go light on the soy sauce...it's loaded with sodium. Chicken is fine and shrimp is also OK in moderation.

Enjoy your date and congrats on the baby!!

EDIT: The rice and veggies are OK to eat too.

I know you said that you're not going to eat sushi since you can't eat anything raw or under cooked, but you could get a California roll or a veggie roll to feel like you were able to get the sushi...I know how it feels to want it and not be able to have it! LOL!!

Stomach virus or pregnancy?

QUEEN OF H

I just threw up today out of the blue, here's what I ate, a shrimp roll, sushi, a donut and I had a slushy. I was at a fair today with my kid brother and a few of my co-workers. You could say I went out with the food. Anyway, I went home around 2:39pm I was throwing up a days worth of food, out of the blue! I'm concerned and confused, I'm on the birth control shot and I'm confused to whether it's pregnancy or just a stomach virus. My belly still aches and I have feel somewhat nauseous.

Answer
Well, fair foods are really fatty and greasy, so it was probably that! It happens to everyone who eats food at the fair. ( like me). If you've had sexual intercourse, there might be a small chance that it's pregnancy, since you had a birth control shot, it shouldn't be because it's really rare. I wouldn't be worried, I just wouldn't eat that much food at the fair again.

Pickles, carrots, grits, brocolli, sausage, and other greasy foods give me bad heart burn and acid reflux.

Answer
Pregnancy Ramen
[Reset]
Keys : Instant Noodles Maggi Student Budget Easy Pasta
Ingredients :

1pktramen (I like Top Ramen Sesame Flavor)
1xegg
1/2cupthinly sliced carrots

Method :

* 1/2 Cup chopped scallions (green onions)
* 1 tsp crushed sesame seed-nori mix (available in Japanese markets)
* This is the only way I could justify eating ramen noodles while pregnant. At least I could tell myself I was getting protein and veggies to counter the sodium and MSG. Mix up the egg as if you were going to scramble it and throw it in the pot when you put the ramen on to boil. Throw in the carrots at the same time. Meanwhile, put the ramen powder, nori mix, and scallions in the bottom of a bowl. Drain most of the water from the ramen and pour the noodles, egg, and carrots into a bowl. Mix and eat, salting every few forkfuls. Try not to think about what the MSG is doing to your unborn child.
* Note: This works well with Sesame, Chicken, and Oriental flavors, but tastes pretty bad with Beef, Spicy Beef, and Cajun Chicken. Not sure about Shrimp or Pork.

How early in the pregnancy do you start getting hungry?

Val

I'm only a couple of weeks at most, but I am starving. It's ridiculous!!! I am hungry all the time for very specific foods/things I don't ordinarily eat (Shrimp, for example) in high quantities. At most I'm five weeks. I actually took the pregnancy test because I was so hungry all the time. Is this normal?

Answer
I think I started getting really hungry at 5-6 weeks but didn't get any cravings for a lot longer (20+ weeks), I was a bottomless pit! It started to return to normal around 12 weeks thankfully!
