1. You need to be under the care of a doctor. You shouldn't trust what you read on websites. But there are a few sites that are good and do give reliable information. pregnancy.org is a good one. They have A-Z topics for your questions.
2. congrats!!yes there is, just go through this site http://www.americanpregnancy.org/pregnancyhealth/foodstoavoid.html
3. http://www.webmd.com/baby/features/foods-to-avoid-when-youre-pregnant just google "foods to avoid when pregnant"
4. Well there are a few trolls here I would avoid. And a few conservative news channel websites too. As for foods, try WebMD or MayoClinic.com's pregnancy sites.
5. u just be careful,no smoking or drinking or drugs or caffiene. go to walmart and get the book, ''what to expect when you're expecting'' that will help alot
6. Yes, whattoexpect.com is a great online version of the bestselling book What to Expect When You Are Expecting. However, you need to talk to your doctor as well because everyone is different and your doctor knows what's best for your specific pregnancy. Good luck!
7. Have you tried WebMD? I swear no one ever googles the word "pregnancy!"
8. Its understandable most docs won't see you right away sometimes not until at least week 8 doesn't mean you won't be under the care of a doc geez. Americanpregnancy.org, Webmd, Babyzone.com are sites I have used as well as just typing in google search bar "Foods to avoid when pregnant" "Unsafe Foods Pregnant". Also another really good route to go to get free literature on healthy eating habits and foods to avoid is your local WIC office (you don't have to be in the program for them to give you literature). They gave me tons of useful info for maintaining a healthy diet as well as unsafe foods.
