Some people have extensive lists that they avoid while others (like me) have nearly nothing. Everything should be in moderation, IMHO. Well, except Alcohol, that I avoid completely. Do what ever you and your OB are comfortable with.

I watch how much Shrip I eat (that is about the only fish I eat); limit my caffene (but lately it has been helping with my migranes so i have been drinking half caf/half decaf); soft cheese (like bree or feta which I don't eat anyway);

DO drink lots of water!! You may not have a problem yet but it helps if you get constipated.

I just follow what my Dr. tells me - everything in moderation, with the exception of fish, such as shark, tuna, bottom feeding fish.

I eat peanuts, feta cheese, peanutbutter! I just avoid alcohol, large amount of caffeine, certain fishes and imported soft cheeses. My doctor told me to eat peanutbutter, it is protein, unless you have a strong history of peanut allergies, you should avoid peanut products, otherwise, wlanuts are one og the highest foods with folic acid. Don't drive yourself crazy, just stay away from the obvious.
