seafood?

Question

I been craving shrimp cocktail or mussels lately but I don't know if it's safe to eat. Since some people say it's bad for the baby, what are some seafoods I can't eat?

Answer

You can eat raw fish! Some to avoid are (like somebody else posted these are high in mercury) tuna, shark, tilefish. I've had sushi my whole pregnancy. Look up which fish are and are not safe because those are just the ones off the top of my head :) Shrimp is definitely safe, though if I am remembering correctly mussels may have been on the list of fish higher in mercury

Answer

You only need to stay away from certain fish because they contain high amounts of mercury, like tuna. You can eat shrimp all you want though! I don't know all the fish you shouldn't eat, but I know tuna is a big one to avoid.

Answer

Anything raw ☹️ you can eat cooked sushi like fried shrimp or fried fish, just not full on raw clams or mussels or fish. It sucks!
