A good book for you would be "What to Expect when you are Expecting."

It will be incomplete to list all things to avoid in pregnancy. But rule of thumb, avoid alcohol, smoking and tobacco products, illicit drugs such as cocaine, meth.... Your Dr. would review your medications and ask you to stop them in pregnancy, avoid certain fish with high mercury contents, avoid caffeinated drinks as much a possible.
Avoid lunch meats and seafoods from the ocean. You may want to avoid foods that give you gas. Eat lots of fruits and fresh vegetables. Stay away from processed foods.
