What to eat in the two week wait? Dietitian tips

[@dilyara85]

Can I eat farmer cheese with sour cream during 2 week wait period , and when trying to conceive ?

[@saramikkelson8859]

Can you please tell more about why no high dose of Vitamin E? One of my providers (that I’m not currently seeing) recommended a higher dose of vitamin E after my ruptured ectopic pregnancy a year ago to help support my healing & support the one healthy tube I have left. I’d like more info on this!

I am currently in the 2week wait period. Could I eat baked salmon without skin? And how about pasteurized cheese?

[@NourishwithMelanie]

Yes both salmon and pasteurised cheese are safe. However, if choosing soft cheeses such as brie and camembert, it is recommended to cook/bake them to further reduce the risk of listeria. For more detailed recommendations regarding fish intake during pregnancy, please see www.foodauthority.nsw.gov.au/consumer/life-events-and-food/pregnancy/mercury-and-fish

Hi Melanie, Should I have to drink the fertility juice in the morning on empty stomache or I can also have it for afternoon before my lunch?

What is the two week wait?

[@rachelwilliams2460]

The two weeks between having sex (during ovulation) and waiting to find out if you’re pregnant (after missed period).

Hi Melanie. Is it okay to do intermittent fasting for 16 hours in 2 week wait or you advise to reduce it. Let me know please

[@NourishwithMelanie]

I would suggest you don't fast during the 2 week wait.

I can’t have dairy , what else can I have in place of dairy??

[@NourishwithMelanie]

There are many dairy alternatives available on the market now :) My advice would be to look out for products that have been fortified with calcium and have added protein.
