NUTS!!!!????


Im SO confused on this....Some people tell me to avoid them, Some people say its fine. I've googled, and its the same, Some sites say its fine, Some say it isn't

Have any of you been eating anything with nuts? Or have you been avoiding it too? HELP!!

I REALLY fancy a snickers bar, and I'm really missing not having peanut butter

What do I do?

( There is no family history of nut allergies )

The current guide lines say you can then go for it. In my other 2 pregnancys it was a no no my last being 2 and half years ago. But my SIL when she was preg with her 1st 16 years ago had it. I've been having peanut butter on toast every morning its a big craving im having at the mo.

I'm not avoiding nuts tbh... there are too many other things I'm not allowed to eat that I just think it's getting a bit OTT.
Obv if there was allergy in my family then I might reconsider but as it stands now if I want nuts I have nuts!

Eat... ive been craving them anyways

 

[cherrybug]

As far as I know its fine to eat them and they are really good for you anyway. I've been quite liking cashew nut butter sandwiches.!

I wasn't sure either, so I've been avoiding them. But there is a pack of peanuts in the cupboard calling my name

Have you found you want the things you can't have even more?
Like whippy ice cream and McDonalds milkshake. Normally I can take or leave them but now i WANT them lol

I really don't know, in my last pregnancy 2 years ago I was told it wasn't recommended, by the time I had given birth they changed it so it's only not recommended if there are allergies in the family.. I really fancy one of those peanut Tracker bars... I'm sure it will be fine! x

YES! I swear the icecream man only comes to my area now just to pee me off lol! I would love a 99! I didnt know we weren't allowed mcdonalds milkshakes!? :O I knew we weren't allowed the mcflurrys.

I'm tempted to go and be brave, and buy myself a snickers bar haha

yip in my pregnancy book i got from the midwife it says we are allowed nuts as long as there is no nut allergy in he family.

I have asthma and allergies so my doctor told me to avoid nuts.

PMSL at your ice cream man!
As far as I'm aware the milkshakes are made and stored the same as the ice cream and mcflurries, so it's the bacteria risk from the machines
