Too much...?

Is too much fast food bad for the baby?

Comments

  • It doesn't have much nutritional value, it's mostly just fillers and junk and grease. It isn't good for you, it isn't good for baby.

    But lord I know all my baby wanted for a hot minute was cheeseburgers from Wendy's. Grossed myself out eating too many!
  • Does it harm my Baby?
  • I agree with @jwigs but maybe once a week. I had to restrain myself from burger king whoppers, I think my burger this week is going to be 5 guys. But as long as your still eating fruit veg. And everything you should be fine. Easy with the fountain soda, even though its 100 times better than from a bottle :-P
  • No, it doesn't harm it. The pamphlets at the doctors just say its not as much nutrition as a salad or grilled chicken breast sandwich and an apple. But its a guilty pleasure of many preggers.
  • It's not gonna put good fat on baby or you. Try your best from either cuting it out your limit the amt. Good luck on the will power! B-)
  • @mschelya THANKS! Its kinda hard since I work at a fast food place /:
    @gladiator007 I sure will (:
  • @mommyclaudiaaa yeah its so tempting to eat that. I went nuts for a few weeks but then heard gaining to much weight quick cam increase risk of toxemia plus the weight you gain doesn't all fall off. Lol
  • And take some water bottles and some flavor packets (crystal light it something) to avoid to much caffeine
  • @mscheyla Well I'm about to turn 18 weeks this Wed. & I weight pretty normal. So far I've gained like 4 lbs. Haha.
    I stay away from caffeine (:
  • That's good, I try to. I had gained about that much at 18 weeks. Your weight gain will pick up, I gained 5 lbs last month which was sad for me...no swim suit this summer
  • @mscheyla Ohh gosh, I'm kind of excited to gain weight (:
    @praying4our3rd I'll keep that in mind (:
  • Lol I just worry about the after effect. I planned a burger king day at work tomorrow, :)

  • Eat what u want just try to throw some veggies and healthy stuff in to if u can
  • My dr said its kinda bad cuz the baby stomach will develope ahead. I just ate chicken nuggets from school snd she was like stop. Now imagine fast food. She has me on a diet boooo :/ my babys stomach is a week a head
  • The thing to remember is that your baby will take what it needs from you, your job when you eat is to replace what it takes. So if you don't get enough calcium, for example, you run the risk of getting osteoporosis or losing teeth.
  • @laura536 (this isn't to stir, just funny story) my mom has Awful teeth, has only the ones in the front. She haunted me with thay for years that I caused it when she was pregnant with me. So I had a Dr apt a few weeks ago and asked, it is actually a wise tail. The baby can't cause damage in your teeth. But bc of hormones you do have more bacteria so floss and brush. I just thought it was funny someone brought thay up, didnt want anyone having the same fear I did, lol :) I don't wanna end up like mom lol
