This is pregnancy No3 for me, and I'm finding it hard to keep perspective on the food safety rules. For example, I am dubious about eating salad in restaurants just in case they haven't washed it properly. Ditto salads in shop-bought sandwiches. I'm not eating smoked salmon, even if I know it's v good quality and v fresh. I haven't been eating tartare sauce or mayo in restaurants, or anything with "illegal" cheese that's been cooked (e.g. on pizza) just in case it's not hot enough. There are numerous other things I'm avoiding, but these are the ones I suspect I may be being over-cautious about.
So am I being paranoid? I'd love to lighten up, but don't want to be reckless!
