Any sushi lovers out there that can tell me some rolls I can still eat?

 

I'm craving  here!

Meh, if you have a reputable place you go to, I say go for the raw. But if not, avocado, cucumer, kampyo, tempura shrimp, tanago, and inari are all my cooked faves

Ditto this. But I can't handle raw with my nausea and gagging, so I've stuck to cooked. I also stay away from large amounts of tuna (a little is okay) and don't do imitation crab. Because I think that is heresy

I will eat what I want. However, most cooked rolls are fine.  There is a great chart on American Pregnancy that says which fish are okay to eat and which you should avoid due to mercury content.

This post caught my eye because I LOVE sushi. I don't personally plan on not eating raw fish, but it sounds like you got some great resources above. H&H 9 months!

Last pregnancy I ate regular sushi.  My doctor said it was fine once in awhile and as long as it was from a reputable place (not supermarket).

I had an Alaskan roll last night.  Smoked salmon, avacado, cream cheese (I added that), and crab shavings.  Yummy!!  However, towards the end, I did start picking the salmon pieces out.  No real reason why...but I loved every bite of it.  And will do it again in a few weeks.  The waitress said the fish was cooked, so I went with it.

All I usually get are california, eel, and shrimp, all of which have to be cooked anyway.

I've been eating sushi a couple times a week as usual as soon as I stopped being too nauseous. My favorite is raw salmon. It depends on where you live, but usually salmon is low in mercury and actually good for the fetus (omega-3s!). The risk with raw is food poisoning, but there are places you are much more likely to encounter that than a nice sushi place IMO.

My favorites are: Unagi (eel), Dragon Roll (tuna roll topped with unagi and hot sauce), Spicy Crab, Spicy Tuna Rolls. I also get a plate of fruit and often some tea whenever I go out for sushi.

From what I've read, you should limit tuna consumption and avoid sea urchin.
