JessieNB is right! nothing high in mercury! Example: No tuna, shark, swordfish. I just stick to shellfish, because the smell of salmon, cod, tilapia...turns my stomach

I agree. My doc said sea food was fine in moderation.  My cousin ate crab legs throughout her pregnancy and baby was fine.  I ate shrimp for new years and baby is healthy.

No. I work for a seafood house in New Orleans. Im 34 weeks &eat crawfish. As long as everything is fully cooked and not too spicy I think you're fine:)

No. Is actually good for you, just make sure it's from a reliable source. All you can eat seafood buffet at golden corral or a Chinese buffet restaurant is prob not a good idea.
