Can't seem to get any good advice from dr google. Is eating fish in pregnancy bad for baby? Has any mom eaten fish…

Thank you guys, I do stay away from the shellfish for now

But honestly I eat the crap out of clam chowder lately and my twins are growing awesome!

Fish is recommended at least twice a week, just avoid high mercury fish... and don't eat shell fish more then twice a week

I’m 100% sure everything will be fine whether you eat more or less of what is recommended! Honestly!

A 3 oz portion of meat is roughly the size of a deck of cards.

Ok, thanks, I used to eat salmon, then switched to parrot fish. I stopped eating mackerel since being pregnant. Hopefully everything will be ok :)

Fish is good for you just avoid the fish that’s high in mercury. Shark, Marlin, mackerel and I know there are a few more but I can’t remember lol it’s more like the stuff ppl usually don’t eat too much of.

Fish is very good for you, just watch the mercury content, don’t eat to much though i thing it’s 6-12 ounces that they recommend. I ate fish like every week

And it's not every week, would that make a difference?

I know it's healthy because of omega 3s and fish oil, and I know to only eat 6-12 ounces a week. I'm worried because I don't know how much is 6-12 ounces :( I don't have a food scale. I eat parrot fish, a whole one 2-3 times a week, these fish are herbivores with short life, so they should be lower on the mercury scale, but the portion size is what's the concern. It's like half a kg that I would eat a week

If I'm over doing it... I guess I want to hear someone say they did and everything is fine :(

Fish is incredibly healthy for you. Ideally you’d eat 6-12 ounces per week.

Raw is not recommended due to the risk of food poisoning.
