Pregnancy, foods you cannot eat!?

Question

I'm am ttc and I hear a lot from my friends, "don't eat fish, has too much Mercury" and "no lucheon meat" but why!? WhAt can I not eat?

Answer

Just dont eat it more than once a week

Answer

Lunch meat seems to be only an issue in the US, I'm in the UK and was told to stay away from cured meat (I.e. Parma ham and uncooked meat) also to avoid liver, and only eat meat that's well done (no rare steaks). As for fish there's a limit to how much Tuna & swordfish you eat but unless you're eating it every day or every other day you should be fine.

Answer

You can have fish only certain kinds are high in mercury. But I don't understand the lunch meat bc I just found out about this.

Answer

Lunch meat is due to the risk of lysteria. (Spelling?) If they're cooked or toasted, you'll be fine. It has to do with how the meat is handled and packaged.

Answer

I know we have restrictions with being pregnant and I follow most. Just makes me laugh that our parents ate whatever they wanted and we're all fine. I still eat lunch meat in moderation and still have my steaks medium as I did before.
