Is deli meat really not good while pregnant? bc of the bacteria?

its not but if you heat it or toast it really well its fine.

I just spoke to my ob about this at my last appointment, she said it was perfectly fine just heat it up in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds to warm it up and make sure to get any of bacteria off. 😊

she said it better then me hehe ☺

I ate a lot of deli meat while pregnant I was fine ... Safeway sandwiches were a serious craving of mine lol

I believe we both commented at the same time 😁 @mommybear95

I'm so glad I read this I have been dying for a sandwich !!! But read it was bad for you . Thank yall 😀

Ask your doc and go with your gut... My OB told me I can eat cold deli meat as long as it doesn't get room temp like a catered sandwich at a meeting that's been sitting out, that's when the bacteria grows. Best of luck

@mommygrant_xoxo I believe we did hehe ☺😊

My dr just said stay away from meat that are slimy like salami and bologna she said all others should be fine

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE! !!

I would for sure heat it up. Personally I never wanted to risk if so I always heated it up when I ate it
