Sushi pleeeaaasse = )

I really want some sushi today. I've been craving it for a while now. I've been searching online and some say that it is okay to eat sushi during pregnancy. Have any of you ladies are currently eating or have eaten sushi during your pregnancy and if so what type. Please respond :) I really really really really really want sushi but don't want to harm the baby but the baby wants sushi too

Look it's kinda a knee jerk reaction to they way raw fish is poorly handled in the west that people go so hard against eating it when pregnant. But people in Japan and such eat it all the time so here are the rules I've followed and have not had issues with eating raw salmon once a week. Never get take away rolls. Always order it fresh made and don't take from the trains. And of course stick to actual restaurants not lunch nooks and smaller eatery places.

You have to eat cooked!!! And if you do eat it California and tempura are the only ones and make sure they don't cross contaminate the knives you have to ask for a New one or wash it off!!! You have to be careful

You've gotta be careful with sushi. You can have rolls that have cooked ingredients, like California rolls or tempura. Many sushi places have rolls with cooked salmon etc. But you must absolutely stay away from anything raw! With raw and smoked food you're risking Listeria and other parasites which can be very harmful.
