We are a seafood loving family and crab is my fav. Now in my second trimester and i really want to eat it but thoda scared about seafood during pregnancy. Anyone here had crab and it was fine?
I was a little careful with seafood after my early scare, so I had it rarely and only home cooked. If you have any allergy or doubt, just ask your gynac. Restaurant seafood I avoided fully.
My doctor said well cooked crab in small amounts is okay but to watch the mercury and avoid raw or undercooked seafood. She told me to keep seafood limited per week. So fresh and fully cooked is the rule.
We eat crab a lot in my area and I had it sometimes during pregnancy. Just make sure it is fully cooked and very fresh, dear. Avoid if it is old or not properly cleaned.
