I went for my doctor's appointment yesterday. My doctor seems like a little bit of a quack. He told me some do's and don'ts for pregnancy. There were some strange things, I think. He does research and writes in medical journals, so he said this one was new research. Stay away from electricity and anything with power running through it!?!? your blowdryer, electric toothbrush all radiates emissions that go into you and are harmful to the baby. Try to minimize it as much as possible. Who doesn't blowdry their hair?!? wierd. Stay away from all chemicals (period!). Deoderant, perfume, cleaners, anything and everything. He said he gets an all natural deoderant in from Australia, that I could buy at the counter. I know that aluminum in deoderarnt is bad, but use nothing or switch to an all natural one? I asked him how I was supposed to clean my house. He told me I should get this stuff called Pink Solution. I could buy it at the front too. You could dilute to whatever you wanted and can use it on anything. Also, I have to stay away from all seafood. Because, it is normally very healthy, but with all the contaminants they put in the water, it could harm my baby. However, there is this drug in there that protects against brain damage in your baby. So he says, now what do you do, I have told you not to eat seafood, yet you need this drug from it. Well, get some cod liver oil pills (also at the front- you don't say!) and take 2 a day. It also reduces stress because it improves brain processes or something. It is from fish, but this one is ok, because its been distilled in Germany or something.
I can only eat the things God gave me- fruits and veggies, soy and nuts. stay away from all sweets, fast food, sugar.....well ya, its unhealthy, but everything in moderation. Isn't that what the Word of Wisdom is all about. He is a little strange, but I guess he may have a couple points....I'll just have to take his wisdom in moderation!!!
