I like prawns a lot but after pregnancy I stopped because I was unsure about seafood. My family eats it fresh at home, still I am doubtful. Did anyone eat prawns during pregnancy?
We eat a lot of seafood at home and I had prawns during pregnancy too, always fully cooked and fresh ma. Family says its good for protein. Still, run it by your doctor once if youre unsure.
Yes if its fresh and fully cooked. Skip anything raw or smelling off. I ate prawns curry sometimes, no problem, just dont buy stale seafood, thats the real risk.
My doctor said well cooked prawns are fine and actually good for protein, just never raw or half cooked. Make sure its fresh and cooked properly. She said avoid high mercury big fish more than prawns.
Cooked prawns are generally okay but if youve ever had any seafood allergy or sensitive tummy, be careful and ask your gynac. I stayed cautious with seafood overall just to be safe.
