What is with all the conflicting info they bombard us with. The health pamphlet I got when pregnant with DD2 said the mercury levels (what the problem is with larger fish like swordfish, tuna, flake) is not a problem with tinned tuna because they use the smaller fish which have much lower levels in it. So I am the same as you - it is my main lunch staple - especially since we're not supposed to eat ham, processed meats or cold leftovers - are they trying to turn us into vegetarians? Probably not - because I recently read about being wary of fresh herbs and raw salad veggies. I need my tuna!!
thanks girls, I think I will continue with my lunches and make sure I dont eat any of it on the weekend until I speak to my OB... and your right Sas85, so much conflicting information and what do they expect us to eat for lunch that is still healthy, good for u and the baby and not on the 'do not eat list'???
