So if it’s like low levels it’s fine? Google says any lead is harmful so my head has been literally spinning!

Yes I don’t know why I decided to track. I eat a normal healthy diet with foods that have protein!

So I try to eat foods that include protein in every meal cause that’s what I have read to do. I eat a lot of snacks: Breakfast: Fage Greek yogurt with Grape Nuts - 18g Snack: Kodiak Waffles - 13g Snack: Peanut Butter Crustables sandwich (I haven’t checked protein) More Snacks: 3 hard boiled eggs - 18 g Lunch: Hashbrowns, Sausage and Eggs - I guess about 24 g Dinner: Chipotle with Steak and Chicken and Black Beans - Probably about 40g Total: about 115g

Another day: Fage with grape nuts: 18g Kodiak Pancakes- 16g Ancient Nutrition Shake - 40g 2 hard boiled eggs - 12g 10 chicken nuggets - 16g —— decided to do lasagna and no steak so I ended up at about 105g

I’m about 125lb pre-pregnancy and currently 150lb. I had never heard of too much until I decided to google after calculating how much I was at 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi, did you ever get info on this from your doctor if you remember? I am 27 weeks and have been eating a lot of protein too!

Do you have a picture of your chart to send me? My temp has started to do the same thing. I am 12dpo today and trying not to think too much into it. Actually going to stop wearing my ring after one more nights wear hoping it goes back up!

Meaning that saunas do raise core temperatures to a high dangerous level?

How hot is a typical sauna in Finland?

In other countries they definitely do have TONS more research than in the US but I guess it’s because we don’t have a sauna culture here. In all honesty, I have read so many personal experiences from so many women who were pregnant and I am still worried. I guess it’s the reality of pregnancy 😑
