I just want some damn shrimp!

in April 2014 Moms

I just want some shrimp in some kind of buttery concoction grilled to perfection! That's all! My hubby made himself some grilled garlic shrimp the other night so I took one and ate it. ONE MEASLY LITTLE SHRIMP. He then proceeds to sit at our dinner table and tell me how I can't eat it because i'm pregnant and i'm not "Thinking of our baby." I swear i'm gonna hit him. I may just go to red lobster or something without him one time and eat all the damn shrimp I want!

    Damn it. Now I want shrimp too. And tell him you are the one growing the baby. Maybe he should trust that you know what is and isn't safe to eat for the baby.

    Shrimp is completely fine to eat! He needs to take a chill pill and do his research, or you need to stand up for yourself. If my husband tried to tell me I couldn't eat something he'd be in for a rude awakening.

    Oh damn, I eat shrimp every two weeks or so. I guess my baby is screwed. If my husband told me not to eat something I knew was safe I would laugh in his face and eat it anyway. Just enjoy your shrimp!

    Just had some salt and pepper shrimp for dinner this week.  They even had the heads on still.  I tore those suckers off with glee.

    Yep shrimp is just fine. DH never questions me on food. Ever. He laughed at me the time I was 3/4 done with a sub i forgot to microwave. I lived. lol. He isn't huge on my choice of having a glass of wine xmas eve after the kids are in bed, and a glass of moscato with him (he hates wine and it's all I can get him to drink with me lol) NYE. IMO it's ok more than twice in pregnancy, but I just chose those two dates only, one glass, because i know he is uncomfortable with it, as well as unless it's an occasion, I want more than one glass. There is no point lol!

    I eat all kinds of seafood. I just always make sure it's cooked all the way through. Most seafood sold in big grocery stores is totally fine. All the seafood I've seen on "no-no" lists are usually not as common or only found in specailty markets and resturants.

    If ANYONE tried to tell me what to eat/not to eat, I'd make a point to eat that thing in front of them after promptly delivering a throat punch.

    If my husband tried to pull some kind of bullshit don't care about the baby guilt trip with me . . . I can't even. Nut punching would be just for starters. Even if it WAS something on the do not eat list, which shrimp is NOT.
    yes. I just can't even w/ these kinds of posts. Where do these men come from? How do they get married?
    I mean, seriously. Who the eff acts like that -- TO ANYONE -- let alone their pregnant wife. I might kick him out. Sorry, OP, but your husband is a dick. And completely wrong.

    My husband would never dream of telling me not to eat something, even if it was on the no list.

    I made my husband brownies one day and had to lick the spoon behind his back because he was all freaked out. It's so funny to me because he's such a laid back guy. He gave me a hairy eyeball for putting a Splenda in my tea once too. I actually thought it was kinda cute of him haha.
