Do you strictly not eat certain foods during pregnancy?

Question

pregnancy?" /> I'm 26 weeks and eaten quite well throughout pregnancy. But today I really crave a cheese and meat day so me and my husband bought lots of different cold meats (chorizo, parma ham, salami) and lots of cheeses (dog cheese, Brie) and some pate.
Looking it up I shouldn't actually be eating any of these things whilst pregnant😩 does anyone follow these food recommendations or can I just gorge!!!!

Answer

It's all about how much risk you are willing to take. You can buy a lottery ticket every day of your life and never win and you can buy it only once on a whim and win the jackpot. Listeriosis is relatively rare but if you hit the jackpot with it, it can cause serious consequences.

Personally, I'd heat the meat and skip the cheese (unless it's pasteurized).

Answer

No. I eat whatever I want in moderation. I dont eat cold cuts or sushis anyway cuz I hate them

Answer

I've avoided deli meat, but it's supposed to be ok if you heat it up and the cheese is fine if it's made with pasteurized milk.

Answer

I'm staying away from sushi and it's killing me I swear. I've had a handful of turkey sandwiches and I've been staying away from bleu cheese and other soft cheeses.

Answer

I do not drink diet drinks or eat food that is "sugar free"

Answer

You will be fine to eat it.

Answer

I believe deli meats are the one thing you need to take seriously. Read "expecting better" she goes over studies and what you should actually avoid, despite what you may hear from a doctor.

Answer

I avoid sushi and deli meat primarily. The sushi mostly because I don't live anywhere near the ocean and I don't trust the restaurants in town. I've found that most soft cheeses in the grocery store are made from pasteurized milk so they're fine to eat during pregnancy.
