Lunch meats?

[windyMae]

I know you're not suppose to eat lunch meat while pregnant because of the possibility of contracting listeria, but I'm just curious how many of you expecting ladies eat it anyways?

I've ate it all 3 pregnancies and never heated it up ever.

ewww all i eat is deli meat. I didnt know that!!

I have sandwiches at least 2-3 times a week for lunch. My nutritionists said if its packaged its okay but as a precaution still try to warm it up. It's the type of meat you get from the deli. She said cause all they do is wipe down the blade an it's not exactly sanitary. You'll be fine. Don't stress.

[babymakes04]

I eat it but I try not to eat too much bologna.  My dr said to just eat in moderation and to eat turkey breast or ham

[peaches421]

I've eaten several times a week and so far everything is good

It's only a chance. I had hoagies from Wawa and Subway and lunch meat from the deli at the grocery store with my last baby and this one and had no problems. We in the U.S. worry too much. Just use common sense. If where it came from is suspicious or it looks suspicious, avoid it, same as you would not pregnant.

I have eaten it a couple times without even thinking about it. I've also eaten moldy cheese without thinking about it.

Mmmm subway, haven't had that in forever.. I know you can heat it up but it just doesn't seem the same when you do..

I have eaten it since about 12 weeks I just buy the kind in the resealable container ... If I haven't eaten it in a week from when I opened it I toss it out...  I'm 29 weeks 5 days and my baby is healthy and so am I ... They told me just don't eat deli meat

I eat it! You can heat it up, and cool it back down (immediately after) and that's completely safe. It's more of a worry of where the meat is coming from, if it's sat out for long (like sub shops, etc) but I've eaten a few subs from subway this pregnancy, and did A LOT with my son and never had an issue. It's more of a precaution, like not eating too much tuna while pregnant.
