Been eating cold cuts all the time, when I was pregnant with my first son ( 2 years ago) with this pregnancy, I have been eating cold cuts and have not experience any complications at al.

With my first two kids, this was not on the list of things not to eat... I ate salami before knowing this time that it was a no...also, I was having severe lack of appetite a last week and I ate a turkey lettuce wrap....I think you are supposed to heat it to piping hot before eating...have you ever tried a grilled cheese with ham?

You're suppose to eat it first to kill all the bacteria. This is actually a fairly new risk bc with my first I ate LOTS of deli ham and wad never told anything about it. But I always heat it now bc better safe than sorry.
