can babies eat meat if the mothers were vegetarian during the pregnancy?

Deb M

i heard if you eat meat after a while of not eating it you can get very sick. so if your vegetarian during your pregnancy and you want your child to have the choice of being vegetarian or not, can you feed your child meat or will they get sick from not being introduced during pregnancy? i know this is a odd question but i plan to become pregnant in a couple years and want to do some research early on. i am a vegetarian for about a year and half now.

Answer
I am a maintained a vegetarian diet throughout my pregnancy and my 8 month old son has had no trouble eating meat. The jarred baby food meats are disgusting and there are certain ones he prefers, but had no trouble with getting sick.

Being pregnant while being a vegetarian is something your doctor will probably want to know about, and monitor you to make sure you're getting enough protein.

Good luck with everything!

Eating sushi during pregnancy?

Q. I've heard it's okay and I've heard it's horrible. I've also been told that as long as you eat the cooked sushi it is fine. I am talking about the sushi rolls not the big pieces of raw fish. Just wondering what everyone else has heard and if people have eaten it during pregnancy. Thanks!

Answer
Sushi rolls with cooked fish (eel, shrimp, crab) or the vegetarian ones (california rolls, avocado rolls) are totally fine during pregnancy.
Technically, you're not supposed to eat raw fish (or meat, for that matter) during pregnancy, which is why sashimi (the pieces of fish you're referring to) is not recommended. Also, the big fish ones, like yellowfin tuna, have tons of mercury which harms the development of the fetus.
Good luck and congrats!
