Tuna Fish

[Hol739]

ok... So I've been craving Tuna Fish very badly....!! This may be dumb, But I just ate a half of sandwich of Tuna Fish, I'm 34 weeks pregnant and now I"m worried. Do you think the baby is ok??? I avoided it during the whole part of my pregnancy but today I just had to have a half of sandwich...!!!

You can eat Tuna in moderation. The american pregnancy associations recommends no more than three 6-oz servings per month

here's the mercury low down on fish

My dr gave me a hand out and it says 6 oz is okay to consume a week. I stay away from all seafood while Pg and I will when I"m breastfeeding too! It's just my personal choice. I would check with you dr. I hope this helps!

Tuna does not need to be avoided, just eaten in moderation. You can have about 1 can of tuna a week.
