Pregnancy eating habits can they affet my childs eating patterns.

I hate green veggies. I eat corn and potatoes and that's it. I have tried them, I don't like them. Fresh, cooked, any way you want to prepare them I'm not a fan. I'm also 30 weeks pregnant. I'm afraid I'm going to pass on my veggie dislike to my baby, because I've heard that the baby can taste things through the amniotic fluid now. What if she never gets to taste peas and then doesn't like them later on?

My mother will eat anything and did so while pregnant with me, and she said I ate whatever she fed me when I was a baby. It wasn't until I was 4 or 5 that I began to refuse things. My boyfriend is also very concerned that my eating habits will affect the baby.
I take my prenatal, I get lots of fruits, plenty of dairy, I eat lots of chicken (only a little red meat); I am almost perfectly balanced, just without the veggies. I had an ultrasound at 29 weeks and they said the baby was 2lb 12oz, which is in the 51% for her gestational age, which means I must be doing something right, right? My question is am I running the risk of having another picky eater, or am I paranoid?

First of all stop worrying. Your baby has picked you out of all the mothers in the world to be the most perfect mother in the world for your child. As long as you are eating high quality protein and mineral rich foods and the baby is growing nicely then stop worrying.
I am a certified nurse midwife myself and was born and raised in Ireland where we basically ate potatoes and carrots plus a little meat. As an adult it has been very hard to acquire the eating desire for a range of vegetables. Yes I advise all my clients to eat their fruit and vegetables as any good midwife would do, but I am also a realist. Make it easy for yourself, if you are not eating correctly then supplement. In fact everyone should be supplementing as out fruit and vegetables are depleted of minerals.
I have two healthy boys and we still do not eat much vegetables. I do not sweat it out as both my boys and myself supplement with high quality vitamins and minerals so we get at least 12 vitamins, 65 minerals and high antioxidants on a daily basis which is a lot more than most kids get.
