True or false ??

Question

I ate a sub from subway and then literally right after I read that I’m not suppose to eat deli meat because it’s contaminated with listeria and can cause miscarriage... is this true?

Answer

most cases of Listeria have actually been linked to vegetables recently . I've been eating subway and Jimmy John's and so far so good :)

Answer

My doctor said that isn’t a big deal in the US.

Answer

They say no lunch meat because of the small possibility of listeria. Heating up the meat would kill any bacteria in it (although it needs to be hot, hot to do that, not just warm to do so). It is rare to get listeria from lunch meat, but there is a small possibility and it is very bad for pregnant women. My guess is places like Jimmy John's and Subway are very careful with their meat, since that would be bad for them of people were getting sick with listeria, so it's probably fine to indulge occasionally. 
Also important, either the meat has listeria or not, and trust me, you would know if you got listeria. So don't fret thinking you're getting small amounts and that is hurting the baby, that's not how it works! If you get it, you would know and would likely require hospitalization, but again, it's pretty rare in the US

Answer

If the meat is heated it’s fine. The chances are low but I still stay away.

Answer

I ate lunch meat all the time with my 7 month old. i have also ate it alot in the last 5 weeks with #2.

Answer

I ate lunch meat almost exclusively in the beginning of my first pregnancy! It was all I could stomach that wasn’t fast food. My kid turned out okay. I will say you should follow the guidelines, but breaking them once in a while is usually fine.

Answer

My doctor says it’s fine if I heat it up.

Answer

It is true. But I had lunch meat once or twice when pregnant and my daughter is fine. Just try to avoid it in future and talk to your doctor if you're super worried.

Answer

I’ve heard that it’s fine if the meat is heated. Don’t know how true that is.
