I went to a wedding yesterday and ate mussels which were an accompaniment to a cod dish. I was telling my mum about what we ate today and she seemed a bit shocked I'd eaten mussels and seemed to think the could be toxic in pregnancy? I don't remember this being in the banned foods the midwife told me about.
My mum is very sensible, intelligent and not at all melodramatic so was a bit upset after. But she's also 69 so was thinking maybe it's out of date advice? Does anyone know if it's one of those foods that the advice changes about?
If it is dangerous when would I know if there has been a bad affect or not? Would I know by now or are there signs to recognise??
Thank you!!
