Salami while pregnant?

[Rachey]

Are we supposed to avoid it? I had a BMT subway yesterday that has salami in it, i didnt know that salami was bad xxx

Pregnant women are advised not to eat salamis during pregnancy though they may have a craving for this delectable delicacy. There are several reasons why eating salami in pregnancy is not a good idea. Salamai often contain preservatives called nitrates that could be harmful to the fetus. They also could be home to harmful bacteria called Listeria, especially if the salami is home-made. Listeria effects include a disease called Listeriosis that can appear within 12 -30 days of consuming the salami. This disease can cause defects in the unborn, still birth, miscarriage and other problems during pregnancy.


I'm such an idiot! I didn't even think about it when I went and got one! xxx

Try not to worry Chances are eating it just once wont harm you or your baby xxxxxxxxxxx

I love salami and pepperoni!! I think its how its made can leave bacteria in it. I've made sure I've only eaten it if its cooked- ie on a pizzs as I think heat can destroy most
bacteria xx

Thanks tinytoes, just annoyed at myself it seems so obvious! lol

Constantstar i loveeee it too! Its great i had my subway toasted so hopefully that big oven helped to kill most of the bacteria xxx
