Lunch meat during pregnancy?

Question

I’ve been craving turkey lunchables but I’ve heard that lunch meat is considered unsafe during pregnancy. I’m almost 9weeks. Is it safe or not?

Answer

Girl eat it! The American pregnancy association or whatever it’s called a has even stated that luncheon meat is safe during pregnancy. Along with soft cheeses, which used to be a no-no-just as long as they’re pasteurized. Enjoy the meat!

Answer

The risk is pretty low but if you want to be even more sure, you could microwave the meat. Personally, I have a much greater fear of romaine lettuce, cut melons, and raw cheeses.

Answer

I ate cold sandwiches weekly throughout pregnancy. You have the same very low risk of listeria with fruits, veggies and soft serve ice cream.

Answer

My doctor said it is phony bologna (no pun intended) about not eating lunch meat. Listeria is more likely in your lettuce than on your turkey lunchable.

Answer

My doctor told me to heart the meat until steaming, then I could refrigerate it in a new container and eat it cold.

Answer

What all those ladies said ^ there was a point early in pregnancy all I ate was turkey sandwiches. It’s like they told me to be cautious of it and suddenly it’s all I wanted 😂 some I ate heated up and some I ate cold. 
If I were in your position I’d make my own lunchable with fresh ingredients from the deli but I’ve never been into premade things like that!

Answer

There is risk of listeria. If you want to avoid it, actually cook the ham before. As in my country there have been findings of listeria lately, then I try to find everything that is still cooked... Just in case.
