[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Check out Wisdom's website.  They ask that you stick to their diet and be in "excellent" health.  There are a ton of threads about it in this forum.  Their goal is for you to stay low risk and they believe their diet will reduce the likelihood of GD and other complications.  [/quote]

Yes, but they are also humane about the first trimester. In a past thread a poster mentioned that Whitney said to try Coke as well as turkey on white bread to help with nausea. Another midwife told me that I should eat whatever I could get down when suffering from nausea and morning sickness. [/quote]

Thanks - OP here again. This is exactly the reassurance I'm looking for here. I'd say I haven't hit coke and turkey on white bread sick..... yet! [b]But I'm having a hard time staying away from carbs. Crackers, cheese, pasta, bread. that's about all I want.[/b] [/quote]

I basically followed the WISDOM diet before getting pregnant - have always avoided carbs, white stuff, processed foods, etc. - but I was in exactly the same place my first trimester. Nothing except bland, carby things appealed to me, so that's what I ate. (And fruit, at least I was eating fruit.) I'm 39 weeks this Thursday and in all my appointments no one has ever asked me about my diet. Maybe if my weight gain was out of the normal range or something they'd bring it up, but it hasn't been an issue.[/quote]
