Re: Can I go to Subway and get Tuna?

  • Nope your baby will come out with fins.

     It's FINE.

  • Chunk light tuna is fine, Albacore is frowned upon because it contains higher levels of mercury.  Moderation of regular tuna is okay.

  • As long as you don't eat it every day it's fine.

  • I posted this same thing a couple of weeks back...tuna subs from Subway have been at the top of my cravings list.

    We are supposed to limit our tuna to one or two cans per week (I hear different amounts from different sources) so one Subway sub won't be an issue. Just don't have them everyday...no matter how tempting it is :)

  • What I really want is a spicy Italian sub with everything, but the cold cuts thing freaks me out so I'm staying away...

  • I eat their tuna sub at least once a week. It's a necessity.

  • If you have to question that, why even bother eating it?
  • Um...it was just a question, so chill the EFF out. Geez.

  • I get cold cuts on occasion. To be honest, I don't really get the big deal about the whole no deli meat thing. I know there's a possibility of listeriosis but the chances of that are so slim, aren't they?

    My mom ate deli meat sandwiches almost every day through all 4 of her pregnancies and we all turned out okay.

    I've only had it maybe 3 or 4 times during my pregnancy but that's about how often I eat deli meat anyway.

    If you're really nervous, get it toasted. The meat usually comes out pretty steaming.

    The cold cuts thing freaks you out?

  • I've been craving a tuna sub from subway since we first found out we were expecting.  I had one on Sunday and DH had a spicy italian.  They were both so funny!  Don't be scared, eat it!
  • I have had a sandwich almost everyday this pregnancy and my baby is totally fine. And I love my doctor, she thinks people go a bit whacko (or should I say "overboard" to be more PC) on the food restrictions.

    Yes  I have had cold deli meat and smoked salmon.  I am not worrying about, as long as I keep it to a minimum level. 

  • Screw the sandwich, I ate tuna straight from a can twice in my pregnancy.....it's fine.

    And I think it was the albacore kind. I always get mixed up which types I can have.

    LOL!!!!

  • You can eat tuna.  Americanpregnancy.org ( I think) has a chart because it depends on your weight (how much you can have a week).  I can eat a can every 9 days.

  • OMFG...

    I've eaten a cold cut from subway at least once a week since BFP.  I've also been known to make a killer tunafish sandwich once or twice a week.  Seriously...eat the fish, it's fine.
