what happen to fetus when i ate raw sushi @my 4weeks pregnant???

[pearlbui81]

I have so much concern this time about my 2nd child. I found out I was pregnant 5weeks. The beginning of my last period was 12/1/11 I conceived on 12/13/11. I ate about 1 bls Raw sushi at a buffet on 12/31 which is 4weeks pregnant.  I didn't find out that I was pregnant until couple days later. I read so much and very concern because of the amount raw sushi that I ate might effect my fetus development. Will I have a birth defect? Or any thing worse will happen? Im eating good food now. I don't smoke or drink at all. Please advise. What kind of test should I ask my doc to run to help find out if any thing goes wrong with my fetus at this point. Thanks

You're fine. Everything  in moderation. My mom ate raw fish all the time with me and I developed normally. I ate sushi and mine is developing normally... And honestly, think about all the preggers in japan that eats sushi and are fine! it's like caffine or cold cuts. You're cautioned not to because of potential hazzards but people consume them anyway and deliver healthy babies.

I'm sure you will be fine. I got bit by a dog that tried to get into my yard when I was 4 weeks pregnant (didn't know yet) I went to the E.R. later that night after my hand swelled so bad I could no longer move it. I had a tetnus shot plus a dose of very strong painkillers and I had an X-ray. They never asked if I could be pregnant nothing. My period wasn't due until the 25th and this was the 19th. So for a whole week I was on antibiotics and painkillers until my period never showed up. I tested positive on the 27th. I now have a 6 month old little boy that is crawling and sitting up by himself and drinking from a sippy cup. I worried my entire pregnany.  Now I think he's to smart for his own good lol. You should be fine there are women out there that do WAY worse then eat some raw fish.

Alot of people dont find out until that time. We will not know for sure until week 12 where they check your baby for defects. I only found out when I was 5 weeks, prior to that when i was 4 weeks I flew in a plane 3 times, had 2 MASSIVE drinking nights (alot of champagne, vodka and undercooked food) and I am 12 weeks tomorrow. my first scan at 7 weeks was good and my bloods are fine. I go for my NT scan on Wednesday to see if all ok, but I  sure one night of that food would be ok.
