Ok ive tried and tried and tried to find out if prawns are ok or not to eat when you are pregnant! i CANNOT seem to find an answer! i have spoken to lots of people who have eaten prawns throughout pregnancy and been fine, so is it ok or not? does anyone have any ideas? i seem to be getting lost in a looooooong list of things i cannot eat, surely not all fish/prawns/ seafood is unsafe???

seafood sticks are full of unadulterated cr@p in general .. you are far safer with something pure and nearer its natural state

yuk yuk yuk .. can you tell I don't like seafood sticks? can you?

Well thankfully - I havn't had any desire for prawns or their rather sad replacement since about 16 weeks - I just want ice cream! Hopefully I'll eat a better more healthy diet soon!

Don't forget you can't have Mr Whippee, or Mr softee ice cream stuff!!!!

In the bounty book the mw gives you when u are pregnant it says that prawns are fine to eat as long as they are cooked in a meal.
