Food to avoid and not avoid during pregnancy?

I'm currently in WK 9 of pregnancy and based in Chinese tradition, it seems that there are lots of food to avoid but I'm not so sure. Need advices on what are the foods to avoid and what not. Hoping mummies to be can share their experiences in this ☺️

From my gynae's advice: all Foods that Chinese say "cold" (凉), alcohol, raw beef, tuna (due to high Mercury), raw egg, etc... I always Google before eating certain food if I'm not sure it is safe for pregnant

I was surprised when I get to know Chinese spinach 苋菜 is not advice to eat too much as in the ancient time, they use this to make the pregnant lady easier in labour (same like how coconut water works I guess) and also for ladies to abort 😞😞 eat abit is OK but not too much
