I'm in Vancouver where the sushi is delicious and fresh, and I decided that it would do the baby more good than harm, read up that Japanese woman continue to eat raw fish, and that the biggest risk was tape worm, and that good restaurants would give no problem, so I've been eating it in my last month. I thought the tape worm would come in handy for managing post-natal weight loss. You're told not to eat so much, all deli meats - which would included any pre-packed sandwiches, but Pret give specific warnings about which sandwiches pregnant women can't eat, so I think most of it is safer than people think. I know it's important and going without food you like for a few months is no great sacrifice, but I have a vegetarian husband and needed the iron and he is a baby if I cook meat in the house, so it would be more risky for me not to eat fish, and women all over the world seem to have fewer food restrictions than we do and still have healthy babies.
