What is the best food to eat during the third trimester of pregnancy?

i ate everything and anything i could get my hands on! i didn't eat much salt, as mentioned by someone else here, because i had pre-eclampsia, so i was already retaining enough water in my legs and ankles! lol i could barely get shoes and socks on! but throughout the whole pregnancy, i ate a lot of tuna (which isn't good to eat TOO much, i've heard), burgers, and salads...but i've heard that you're supposed to stay away from any cold cuts, like turkey, salami, etc., because of some kind of bacteria on them...which didn't bother me much, since I never ate them to begin with!

Look, eat whatever you feel like - honestly, just aviod the usual stuff that you've avoided from day 1 - raw fish, processed meats, pate'/ soft cheeses, Salad bars & fast food! Try & eat a balance of everything, red meats, salads, veggies, fruits & if you want something sweet, try yoghurts & things like that, which taste like they're bad for you - LOL! I found myself eating most things at that stage, just vary it up a little & if you want something & you know it's not going to be bad for the baby, then go right ahead & enjoy it!

it's easier to tell you what not to eat but by now, im sure you already know. there is no food better than any other. Whatever you are hungry for or craving is whats best for you and baby as long as its not too sugary or fatty, then its fine. They say stay away from fish too much. Only eat it like once a week. I dont eat fish more than that anyway so you know! Good luck with your baby and congratulations!
