Prenatal care: Then is time to see your Obgyn to start your prenatal care so they can guide you through the process. They can identify any risks or any lifestyle changes. Most antibiotics are safe. Cortisone is safe but is not an appropriate treatment for the flu. Coffee is ok in moderation. There are no restrictions on eating steak as long as it is cooked
