You can always buy some digestive enzymes to take with the cooked food, to help it go down better of that is what you want right now.

If you want cooked food then you should just have some. You can have cooked vegan food which is not so bad you know. It's just the junk processed cooked food that is really harmful. Home cooked with love vegan food is all right. No need to beat yourself up about it ;)

hey! I agree with Jef, listen to your body and perhaps eat the healthiest possible hot food and lots of spices. Why don't you try a hot and raw soup, my favourite is butternut squash and red pepper (Im sure you could find some great recipes on the internet.) Or crackers straight from the dehydrator...or even cooked quinoa or steamed veggies? Enjoy! xxx

Ooh, hot water with mint sounds lovely.

Hi Christa! The most important thing right now is not whether or not you eat hot food or cold food, but just to LOVE yourself, and LOVE your baby. That is what your baby needs right now! Love being pregnant, and love doing all that for your baby! (only taking certain herbs, not doing detox, not doing jumping jacks--what excercise are you restricted on?) A baby is growing inside you! Enjoy this time, (Its AMAZING!) and let the rest go, if you possibly can, and you'll come out with a healthy happy baby because you were healthy and happy while pregnant--mentally and emotionally-- not just food wise. I ate a bagel with cream cheese every night before bed with my 3rd child, and look at her! (ok, I'm biased). She is so healthy... . now, I wouldn't do that again, now, but I'm just saying, its ok to relax a little bittle. Do what you need to do. Warm your food slightly. Everything will be ok. Sending you happy warm thoughts........♥

You can try heating up your plate.

I worked in Utah in the winter and had to deal with sub zero weather. Believe me, I wanted hot food.

I found that I could warm things up to about 115 which is what you have to wait for it to be edible at anyway when it starts boiling hot . . . also, use warming spices like cayenne, ginger, cloves, etc . . .

There are also ways to keep your body warm / raise body temp internally (like meditating monks in Tibet do), but that's another story . . .
