I would like to suggest Cottage cheese bowls, Salad bar, Yogurt, String cheese and Single serve fruit bowl. Avoid food with preservatives, fatty foods and sweets (specially when you are diabetic).

You should also avoid shellfish and store bought sushi.

Anything high in folate is good for your baby, such as:

* Black-eyed peas
* Lentils
* Okra
* Kidney beans
* Great Northern beans
* Broccoli
* Iceberg lettuce
* Beets
* Lima beans
* Sunflower seeds
* Spinach
* Brussels sprouts
* Corn
* Asparagus
* Baked beans
* Green peas
* Baked potato
* Cabbage
* Avocados
* Peanuts
* Romaine lettuce
* Tomato Juice
* Orange juice
* Strawberries
* Oranges
* Eggs
* Bananas

• Oily fish - is good for you and your baby but it can contain environmental pollutants. Have no more than two portions of oily fish a week such as mackerel, sardines and trout so you get all the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, but also cut the risk from the pollutants. Limit tuna to no more than two tuna steaks a week or four medium-size cans of tuna a week. Avoid shark, swordfish and marlin altogether because of the high levels of mercury in these fish, which could harm your baby's developing nervous system.

best thing is eat lots of icecreams with fresh fruits as well as dry fruits in it. if you dont feel like having spicy things go for sweets, but not more since it may sometime lead to diabetis
