Can you eat herring in pregnancy?

[emkana]

I've tried to find the answer through google, but am still not sure. Does anybody know? Am unsure because the fish is raw.

I'd heat it up.

Is it a rollmop emkana (ie, pickled?)
I did eat M & S sushi when pregnant, both times, and this time round I noticed it was labelled "no raw fish". But it had cold-smoked salmon in it...so I am guessing that a smoking/curing/pickling process will have the same effect as heating it.

It's herring in creamy sauce from Lidl - not sure if that's pickled or not.

Do you mean pickled herrings? I would always cook ordinary raw herrings, but vinegar is a preservative so I would imagine they are ok. The same goes for kippers as they are hot-smoked. Smoked salmon is usually cold-smoked but the smoke is a preservative too and i can't say i thought twice about eating any of those things when I was pregnant - I ate anything and everyhing.

It does have vinegar in it, but not a lot. It's mainly herring and cream.

I think I know the sort of dish and I am pretty sure the herring has been cured, because otherwise it would have gone off very fast.
I would eat it myself as it stands emkana and one thing's for sure - I wouldn't heat that dish up [vomit emoticon]!
