first of all, if you aren't willing to change your life for your baby then why are you asking these questions?

Secondly let me say anything in moderation is ok.

can I eat shrimp?
**in moderation, i don't see why not, i did.**

I like rice and tea can I still have them?
**rice, yes!! Tea, i don't see why not. there are certian types that aren't good, i would ask your OB-GYN**

Can I do crunches still?
**I would say not**

Can I do push ups or weights in my first 2 trimesters?
**maybe, ask your obgyn**

Can I ride a moped?
**sure why not? but safety is the key**

Can I eat clam chowder and ramen? Cause I love soup ^_^
**ramen...sure, but clam??? not too sure....ask your obgyn to be sure it's safe...i couldnt' really find anything about clam on google**

should I avoid having a messenger bag instead of a backpack for schools?
**that is your choice, you can ask your doctor, but unless your having complications of sorts, then it's your choice. **


Should I avoid heavy books and lifting wile in the first trimester?
**I think it's some where between 15 or more lbs unless your having complications**

Should I avoid all smokers at any cost or is it ok to be around them here and there?
**here and there is fine, but why dont'you just stay away from them while they are smoking just to be safe.**

Can I still have recies puffs and sugary cereals or is it all about fiber?
**your vits should cover it unless you get constapted, then fiber will help**

I should avoid coffees and caffeines but can I still have chocolates and suckers every now and then?
**I still drand coffee and cokes whenever i wanted one....which wasn't often. and sure you can have chocolates and suckers...i dont' see it as a problem. **

Should I not each chinese and mexican foods?
**it's fine to eat these...I did.**

You should ask your doctor these questions just incase. good luck
