Vegetarian Pregnancy?

Question

Im currently 5 weeks pregnant. I have an intolerance to most meats that has just gotten worse since getting pregnant. The only kind of meat I can eat without having any issues is fish. Is there anyway I can eat fish while pregnant? I know I can't have raw fish (like sushi) but I would rather not be 100% vegetarian. Any ideas?

Answer

I have been a vegetarian for 4 years, I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and have been vegetarian my whole pregnancy. I use meat substitutions like tofu, tempeh, beans, lentils, mushrooms. If I don’t feel like cooking there are great frozen meat substitutions like Morning star, Boca, and Gardein. Fish is okay during pregnancy about 2-3 days of the week, pick fish with low mercury like salmon, tilapia, shrimp, or cod.
