Do Japanese Women Eat Sushi, Do French Women Eat Soft Cheese/Pate

[Phteven]

I broke heaps of the 'rules' when I was pregnant. TBH I didn't even know the sushi one and I ate heaps of sushi. I had the odd serve of soft cheese too.

i didn't really go by the 'rules' either. I ate ham, runny eggs, etc...I just avoided the more obvious things, like salad bars. There are too many rules these days!!

If i listened to all the 'rules' I would have nothing to eat! I do limit my serving of fish to twice a fortnight though. But i eat soft serve (only at maccas cause their turn over is huge) and subway, cold meat from the deli (but obviously not if it looks bad), pasta salad. Have done through the other kids pregnancies too we are all fine. Everything in moderation though!

My friend who is Greek said that in their village they give the pregnant women salami to eat! In Slovenia they also make a special alcohol for women to strengthen their constitution.
