First trimester
Does baby start to eat what we eat at week 7. Feeling so paranoid on my food intake that i barely eat anything because no appetite and bloatedness all the time.
What you eat is converted into essential nutrients and transferred to baby via placenta, so it's not exactly the same as what we eat. It's OK to eat what you enjoy, no need to restrict too much. Happy mummy is important for baby too. The only things I would restrict are caffeine (max 1 cup coffee a day), alcohol (no alcohol at all), raw or not fully cooked food like sushi, steak, soft boiled egg. Aside from that, anything goes! I was happy and baby turned out perfect 😁

Try including more vegetables, fruits and fish(check which type of fish you can eat) in your diet as baby grows. But don’t forget to control your sugar & sodium intake! :)
