Can you eat lunch meat while pregnant I want a really tasty meat cheese and miracle whip sandwich 😩 a few told me if I do I'd have to heat the meat up is this true?
@ilovemychildren right that's why there are 1,600 documented cases every year with over 200 resulting in death. But it is extinct in modern times. I don't care what anyone eats or drinks honestly loll
@sawyersmom I have had three children this is my fourth. I ate a CRAP TON of non warmed sandwiches with all of them. wana know why? Because of food regulations in the US the chances of you getting Listeria from unexpired lunchmeat is SO LOW its not even a concern in modern times.. Do your research
@juliaschade41 just because your baby is fine doesn't mean someone else's will be. Listeria and salmonella are nothing to mess with when you are pregnant. It isn't good advice just because your baby is okay. While I agree that her baby will probably be okay after one sandwich. She should at least know the risks she is taking and make an educated decision from there.
@damonica.bond let the poor girl enjoy her sandwich!! Geesh! She probably already gobbled it up anyways.😂😂😂
I always make sure I get my lunch meat from a specific deli, I know how they handle their meats and cheeses... and on the rare occasion I get some lunch meat, I will eat it cold the first day or 2, but if it's still in my fridge on day 3 or 4 I will make it into a grilled hot sandwich to be safe!
I eat lunchmeat without heating it all the time
Doc says to heat lunch meat until steaming, 165°. I have had a ham sandwich once or twice. But some women dont even risk it. Can be extremely dangerous if you get listeria, toxoplasmosis, or salmonella. Pregnant women are more susceptible to it, thats why they say lunch meat is a no go.
@damonica.bond you don't have to to heat it up. Like I said its fine sometimes you'll be okay. Don't be paranoid😜 you're almost done with your pregnancy anyways, baby will be just fine.
@juliaschade41, yeah I rarely eat lunch meat but tonight I'm just craving it! lol went to doctor other day was told my baby is healthy:)
@damonica.bond no you're not supposed to eat the whole package (like I have lol), but sometimes its okay. People are sometimes too paranoid about things. My doctor said my baby is fine and she has been fine. You'll be okay momma, enjoy your sandwich💖
@kaydenndkalanimuva, it tastes weird once I hear it up
@kaydenndkalanimuva, that's what mine says but I have to have a good ham sandwich
My nutritionist said it's better too warm the lunch meat up first
I've been eating raw pepperoni slices, ham, Turkey, salami, hot dogs, tuna, etc this whole time and everything is fine.👍
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
@sawyersmom that's why I really kept encouraging her to eat her ONE sandwich. Lol and I said the word SOMETIMES. Lol please read before you react. Thank you!💖
