The Dos and Don'ts

Hi!

So my husband and I just got our first positive today, 10 DPO and I know I can't go in for my first ultrasound until week 8 so I'm trying to figure out the dos and don'ts during this time. Particularly, FOOD! I have seen different articles saying not to each chicken and others saying I can. What should I do!?

First off, congratulations!!
As for food, here are some simple rules to follow.
Don't eat;
Sushi
Soft cheeses
Deli food. Just don't eating anything from a deli
Whole egg products that you get refrigerated. Shelf products are fine
Sprouts
Fish that contains high levels of mercury (you will have to google search this)
Raw egg
Unpasturised juice or dairy
Cold cuts of meat. If you cook it or heat it thoroughly it's ok
Be super careful with leftovers, if in doubt, don't eat it
It's good to avoid pork products because of the nitrates, but I didn't
Alcohol, obviously

Hope this helped! :)
