Thanks ladies...I want a sub sandwhich now!
I never heat up my meat. They come up with new things everyday that aren't "safe" for us.  It's ridiculous!

From what I'm hearing, they just started saying (like in the past 4-7 years) not to eat cold deli meat. When I told my mom she was, of course, surprised because she's never heard that. The other day I wanted Subway, but didn't want to heat up the meat so I just let it pass. I'm still trying to decide if one day I'll give in to it? But like I said, they just started saying the meat has to be heated.

My mom ate quite a few sandwiches with me and my sister and we're just fine. I've been trying to avoid the lunch meat but I just gave in one day. I had to have a sandwich lol. I try not to eat them often though. And lunch meat is so nasty warm lol. Like the comment above me, people do things that are much worse than eating lunch meat while pregnant.

I finally gave in and had a turkey sandwich and it was AMAZING. Im 31 weeks. I was scared to eat it. But my mother told me that when she was pregnant with my siblings and I the only thing she could eat was turkey sandwiches, and we were all healthy.

If it's prepackaged, you're okay. And sushi is okay as long as it's not raw.
