I do too. If I didn't eat leftovers I'd never have anything for lunch!

Do you mind if I ask what helped you to quit smoking...besides knowing you're pregnant of course. I am 5 weeks today and am ashamed to say I have not been able to quit completely YET. I have cut back as far as I can at the moment and am going for acupuncture starting Tuesday. Just need some advice/support from someone who understands.

Congrats on cutting back and putting in an effort - that's an achievement in itself

I can't speak from experience so I'm not going to offer false advice. Just wanted to give you a hug for your effort thus far

LOL

My hubby misheard when I read out the list and rejoiced when he thought I said underwear is on the list of no-nos

Men!!

I believe in moderation. If I want to have runny eggs, I will. If I feel like sushi, I will hit up a high-end place and have good sushi grade fish.
Same with soft cheese.
Same with red wine.
I have a jacuzzi at home and nothing is more relaxing than a warm bubble bath. Of course, the water is not as hot as I used to have it, it's warm, but I sure still have my bubble baths.
I don't eat any other type of meat, except fish.

I eat incredibly well all other times, I juice a lot and I am back to working out daily.

I honestly believe this "all or nothing" attitude is nonsense.

Well, that's your opinion and you can choose to live the way you want to. I'm happy to sacrifice things that, ultimately, aren't important in the long run for even the remote slight possibility of having less complications

Just for interest, the following paper
Aliyu MH, Lynch O, Nana PN, Alio AP, Wilson RE, Marty PJ, Zoorob R, Salihu HM. Alcohol consumption during pregnancy and risk of placental abruption and placenta previa. Matern Child Health J. 2011 Jul;15(5):670-6
Found that: "Women who consumed alcohol during pregnancy had a 33% greater likelihood for placental abruption during pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.33 [1.16-1.54])."
