My mother, while she was pregnant with me, consumed a huge amount of sugar. The doctor actually told her to stop because it was messing up some levels in her blood. Later on, when I was 8 years old my doctor thought I was hypoglycemic. I would shake if I didn't eat as soon as I was hungry. I've never in my life been able to feel true health and energy. I have more energy than I've ever had in my life, but if I have a full active day... I am exhausted for the next 3 days. I cannot handle any processed ingredients whatsoever. I have to eat a strict diet of raw fruits, raw veggies, good oils (like olive oil)... I've even become gluten-intolerant (although I eat gluten in the morning). Being I'm only 22 years old... I don't understand why my body is so sick (which contains TONS of symptoms like horrible allergies, intestinal issues, etc). I ate like the average american child growing up. Although, I did find a tape of my parents letting me drink coke and eat pizza at 2 years old.

Let me put it this way ~~~ if a mother does cocaine during her PG the baby will be born addicted but the baby can outgrow the addiction and become clean.

Some or a lot of cell damage is done to the infant due to what mother put in her system and the child is stuck with that damage for life.

Common sense says that is true for anything the mother ingests.

Follow your doctors orders or pay the price. my mom ate french fries when she was pregnet so all i eat is them so. A mothers diet effects the baby a lot. My sis found out she was pregnant and stopped drinking and smocking. She now eats only the healthiest for her baby. LOL
