So, I ate smoked salmon 3 times within 24 hours when I realized...

That it is off limits. I am so bummed/worried. I hope everything is alright. It was the only thing that was keeping my morning sickness away. I cannot believe I can't eat it for the remainder of this pregnancy. I'm craving it :(

    You're fine.  You are only supposed to avoid it because its not cooked with heat and has a higher risk of food poisoning.  If you haven't gotten sick yet, you probably won't.
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

    Bleeghh.  Smoked salmon sounds sooo gross to me right now.  Funny how people's cravings and aversions vary so much.  I used to like salmon.

    I'm sure you'll be fine.

    Can you eat it cooked?  Like in an omlette?  Then it will be fine.

    It sounds good cooked too! Thanks for the idea. It sounds perfect with an omlette. Thanks for the reassurance!

    I am sure you are find. However I think I am steering clear of all seafood right now given the oil spill. There is no telling we they are importing their stuff.

    Just a FYI, salmon live in northern waters. The gulf and surrounding rivers are too warm for them to live/spawn.

    It's fine. We all do things before we know we're pregnant like eat sushi and drink too much wine.  The blood supply isn't shared until around 8 weeks anyway, if I remember.

    I believe it's 6 weeks.

    Regardless, like pp's have said, if you haven't gotten sick yet, you probably won't.

    I ate it too. A few times. I thought smoked made it ok. Yep, I'm dumb. I think our generation knows too much about what we can and can't eat anyway. I bet my mom ate all this yummy stuff like salami and lox all the time when she was preggers w/ me and I'm fine. We know too much and I find it annoying.
