From memory I didn't really crave salami while pregnant, so didn't have it, but I did want to point out that the listeria 'scare' in Auckland a couple of years ago was in pre-packaged, sliced meat so I would go with piping hot salami regardless of where it came from.]]> Fri, 04 Sep 2009 20:55:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=766167&title=salami-ok-to-eat#766167 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=766151&title=salami-ok-to-eat#766151 Author: Bobbie

Personally I wouldnt eat it, it is only 9 months. If its on pizza I do just pick it off.

And its what your willing to live with at the end of the day also.....i wouldnt feel guilt........guilt is eating a big bowl of choc icecream covered in choc sauce right after doing a 2 hour workout.........if i ate any of the NO GO stuff, i would be worried that i may have adversially damaged my baby and it could be something they have to live with for the rest of their life.......i know someone who wasnt so careful and their baby was born blind......i just would want to kill myself if my carelessness resulted in my child suffering for life.........morbid i know but its reality also

I have accidentally eaten some no go stuff but im not overly worried, i figure if you eat it all the time you are increasing your chances of getting a bad peice of meat or the egg with listeria etc........if you eat it very rarely then its a lot less chance. Im eating KFC for dinner tonight and i know some people that wont go anywhere near it, but i just zap it some more when i get it home

I also dont think i could handle the 'told you so' comments.....lol]]> Fri, 04 Sep 2009 18:41:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=766011&title=salami-ok-to-eat#766011 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765634&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765634 Author: ElfsMum

lol as we all know i am really funny about what i eat for the same reason as chickaboo said..having had two mc's even the miniscle risk isn't worth it for me(and i know someone who lost bub to listeria so that doesn't help) though having said that the most risky food i got offered was waiting to have him in hospital...lol so anyway deli meat for me and no sushi etc and I miss it..but for me it[s not worth the worry:)

I thought I better add a caveat so I didn't get told off I don't think its controversial and I agree - nobody else is in my body but people who feel very strongly on the subject don't tend to see it that way. I've had complete strangers come up to me when I was preg with Jake and tell me off for eating vege sushi I still get stuff from the deli at the supermarket and I adore subway (not their prices though) and bakery rolls (ham and salad mmmmmmm) and basically the only thing thats changed for me is that I eat more lol otherwise I haven't adjusted my diet at all. I figure that I have enough going on with my body that making myslef miserable over food is stupid. ]]> Fri, 04 Sep 2009 11:11:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765481&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765481 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765449&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765449 Author: WRXnKids

I ate salami never even thought of it as one of the meats to avoid i had it in my subway sub almost everyday but i had morning sickness from about 6 weeks to 25ish weeks so i ate pretty much whatever i felt like cos otherwise i wouldnt have eaten at all

personal choice and each to their own but i wouldnt call it possibly controversial babe i dont think anyone can judge if they arent in your body and experiencing it your way as all pregnancies are different ]]> Fri, 04 Sep 2009 10:37:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765449&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765449 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765405&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765405 Author: Babe

Me. I eat ham and salami and sushi and so on and have done with both my pregnancies so its really what you feel comfy with. I don't feel guilty I'm too busy feeling nice and satisfied in my tummy
With Jake I was so sick that anything I could enjoy and keep down was acceptable to me and this time round I'm so starving hungry all of a sudden that I have to have yummy and quick food available otherwise I start throwing up and can't stop :sigh: pregnancy is a beeyatch!!

Up to you but it's worth noting that in Aussie about 10 years back they had a listeria problem in Don's Salami and it resulted in multiple MC's.

I Salami anyway but it's one of those things I wouldn't take the risk on personally.]]> Thu, 03 Sep 2009 22:04:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765208&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765208 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765123&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765123 Author: LouD

I have eaten the vacum packed ham and deli salami BUT only piping hot as advised....which of course just isnt the same.........Each to their own but if there was ever anything wrong with this baby I would go back over my whole pregnancy with a fine tooth comb and if there was anything i had done that was advised against then i would never forgive myself for potentially being the reason my baby having something wrong etc......i am hanging out on a few things but its a small part of my life to not eat it for a bit of peace of mind that im doing my absolute best to have a healthy baby]]> Thu, 03 Sep 2009 20:38:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765123&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765123 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765108&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765108 Author: Katep

Agree with the vacuum package comments...although I never had it as didn't crave it that badly.

However I did have it cooked on pizza on a few occasions. ]]> Thu, 03 Sep 2009 20:23:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765108&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765108 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28531&PID=765020&title=salami-ok-to-eat#765020 Author: Pants

Yeah what she said...there are plenty of us who would eat pre-packaged, vacuumed packed so long as you eat it same day you open etc etc but then some wouldn't.

I agree, do your research, see what you feel comfortable with.

I ate salami, prosciutto, generally all kinds of cured meats during pregnancy.

Hi guys,

I haven't had too many preggie symptoms other than feeling queezy / that car sick feeling the last week or so but this week I suddenly got HUNGRY!! I'm talking wanting to chew my arm off by 10am in the morning hungry and if I dont eat I'm to faint ...
