What can I eat?

Hello

I found out I was pregnant about two weeks ago, my boyfriend is thrilled, parents arent because I am still technically married. But I don't see it as that as he left me! Anyway, I am slightly stressing about what I can and cannot eat. By what people are telling me its a miracle I have eaten anything in the last week! Can I eat any cheeses like philly or mozarella? Can I eat cheesecakes and mayonnaise? I know I can't have shell fish, but am a bit unsure about the cheese factor. Do I really have to drink decaf coffee and tea? I am a teacher and need the caffeine! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers 🤔

well to start off i still drank normal regular coffee i needed it lol and u cant eat chese like brie if thats how it is spelt hun and u can have home made mayonaise as it contains raw eggs and u cant have runny eggs they need to be hard
other than that not sure babe

with regards to the caffine: Its not that it will do you any harm.

It does however stop your body from absorbing vit c, which in turn stops you absorbing iron.

I only know this because i drank coffe in my first pregnancy and kept fainting because of low iron!

I found that so long as i matched every caffinated drink with one high in vit c like orange juice, it wa all fine.

Congratulations!!
