A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sushi ? Sushi ?: The real problem with sushi is the raw fish used in many of the preparations, which can carry viral components which can infect the liver, and sometimes affect a pregnancy. Without symptoms at this point, your pregnancy is probably safe, but it stomach cramps, diarrhea, etc. begin, get a CBC from your OB physician to check your eosinophil count (type of blood cell).
