We are planning fish curry and red snapper is available fresh. I am pregnant and keep hearing mixed things about seafood and mercury, so I am unsure. Did anyone ask their doc about this fish?
Haan, most doctors suggest avoiding high-mercury fish. Snapper might be okay in small amounts, but better to check with ur gynac once for peace of mind.
Uff, the list of 'can't eat' things is longer than my shopping list these days! Red snapper sounds so good right now but I'm just sticking to all the low mercury stuff coz I'm too tired to research anything else. Maybe just eat some dal chawal, it's safer, haha!
Oh God, this fish thing is so confusing, na? I was so stressed about every single thing I ate when I was pregnant. My gynac gave me a list of safe fish, maybe ask yours for one too just to be super sure? Better to be careful, yaar.
Betiji, hamare yahan toh log bolte hain machli achchi hoti hai par zyada nahi khani chahiye. Doctor se pooch lo ek baar, woh achche se batayenge tumhe. Meri saas bhi bolti thi sab kuch khate the pehle, but now doctors are more strict.
Hey girl! Honestly, don't stress too much about every single thing. Red snapper is generally considered moderate mercury, so maybe occassionally is fine? But yeah, if you're really worried, just quickly ask your gynac, they'll clear it up for you.
