Thank you for your question. The way to a healthy pregnancy and baby is all about diet and lifestyle. There are certain genetic factors that are inevitable but the health of your little one also lies largely within you.
Sometimes even though we are consciously watching what goes into our bodies during pregnancy, we don't know it all and we aren't sure what's safe and what isn't. The American Pregnancy Association has compiled a list of "Is It Safe?" Foods, medications, and household cleaners: http://americanpregnancy.org/isitsafe/
Please make sure you read the article and take a look at the APA's website. Also, remember to take your prenatal vitamins daily and always attend your appointments.
