I’ll walk through affordable foods including ginger, spinach, sweet potatoes, seaweed, eggs, tofu, salmon, yogurt, rice, white fish, tuna, and canned salmon. I’ll also explain how I handled cold cuts, energy drinks, smoked salmon, and raw fish, using guidance from the FDA and ACOG. I’m not a doctor or nutritionist, so I also share the food-safety habits I learned from my mother in Kanazawa and from my own pregnancies in America.
