what am i supposed to eat?

This being pregnant thing is so hard! I still am getting sick, feeling nauseous, sleepy, etc...& hoping those things will let up soon, but I cannot figure out what to eat. I am generally a healthy eater. Okay...I don't know if I would really claim that or not, but my friend, Amie thinks that about me so maybe I am comparatively to the some Americans I am. However, I have just been feeling so sick and mostly things that aren't great for me - like Wendy's frostys sounds good. I have barely been able to stomach a carrot and last night's steamed broccoli made me gag as I swallowed it.

And then packing a lunch is a nightmare. I don't always have access to a refrigerator at work, so I usually try to bring something cold. Lately I have been bringing like trail mix and some fruit and water. Sometimes a peanut butter and jelly or honey. Not exactly filling....Then I found out I should not be eating honey. Then I found out that peanut butter is not so great because your baby could have a food allergy or could develop one. Okkkkk. Of course deli meats are off-limits because of listeria. Can I just vent, what I am I supposed to eat??

It gets worse. I had already read I should be avoiding food coloring. Ok, I can handle that. No artificially dyed stuff, which I imagine a lot of food & drinks have, but sure. Yes, I will try to do that. Then today through a conversation, I hear that I should be also avoiding preservatives. A-what? Aren't preservatives in like most foods from a box? And probably in saltines and ginger ale that I have been eating daily for my upset stomach. Then I started to look at some labels. No frozen pizzas, no prepared meals, no lemon juice (which I had been adding to my water to help with queasiness)....among other things that I am sure I have been eating.

I am not like super-stressed or anything. But I am kind of frustrated because I feel like I don't know what to eat. I will try to have a happier post soon.
