Serious question.. I'm really craving tuna and I have cans of it in my pantry. But in my early…

no tuna at all the mercury can cause birth defects. especially early on when the organs like the brain and heart are developing.

That's what I heard, as far as early pregnancy is concerned. But I'm 8 months pregnant now.. And I see some mommas eat tuna sandwiches all the time.. I'm so conflicted 😩 lol @brandonswife14

I've eaten tuna through my whole pregnancy, not all the time, in moderation. Never more than once in a week, most of the time every two weeks and my baby is perfectly healthy.

I eat it like 2 times in a week but every so often, just eat light canned tuna that doesn't have salt and is in water instead of oil.

@nikjay2015, My mom alway tells me to eat my cravings because if I don't my child will come out with its mouth open all the time, smh Mexicans... I don't believe it but I do it anyways. Lol

I heard no more than 6oz a month which is like one can

I love tuna melts 😍 once a week is fine

canned tuna won't hurt you I've ate it my whole pregnancy and no problems

I've ate it every once in a while too. I used to crave it a lot just don't over eat it 😊
