A member asked:
Is it safe to eat sushi while pregnant, if you have been eating it 1-2x per week prior to being pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if cooked: Raw sushi can contain parasites or bacteria that can make you sick. When pregnant, your immune system is challenged and sometimes can't fight off infections as well as when you're not pregnant. If you have to get your sushi fix, stick with the cooked options.
