Sea food

[EveLevy1111]

Hello fellow expecting mothers
I am six weeks pregnant and I am craving shrimp, like a shrimp cocktail with lots of chili and avocado! ::drools:: Is eating shrimp harmful during a pregnancy, or any kind of sea food if that!? Feedback will be much appreciated!

Seafood is perfectly fine I craved sushi bad in the beginning so I just at the cooked and I eat shrimp like crazy...my doctor just said nothing high in mercury and the stuff is people don't normally eat like shark so enjoy

It's the mercury they worry about. But as long as its cooked you are good with shrimp. No sushi though and canned tuna should be eaten sparingly because of the high amounts of mercury.
