Raw salmon

I went for afternoon tea with my sister today and totally forgot I should avoid uncooked fish. I have only just realised it took a few bites of the smoked salmon sandwich and unsure if I should contact triage as I don’t know how bad it can be? What are peoples opinions?😢😭😣

Hello! I did the same thing around 12 weeks pregnant. Have a google of the symptoms of infection from eating raw fish and if you’ve got any or aren’t feeling well I’d call triage. I was absolutely fine but I know the panic well!

@Lucy thank you for your comment. I haven’t got any of the symptoms. So fingers crossed I’m fine. It didn’t even click till now!🫣😣 will keep an eye on any of the symptoms tho x

Oops I did this a week ago and didn't even think about it 🤦🏽‍♀️ I've been fine though so I wouldn't worry!

@Tanya ahh that’s handy to know! Thank you🫣😂x

As long as you’re feeling well I wouldn’t be concerned! 🥰

Smoked salmon is not recommended in pregnancy but I still ate it and was totally fine.

I’ve had smoked salmon a couple of times because I just really craved it so I caved in and I was fine both times so I’m sure you’ll be fine!! I know people who ate sushi and other things you’re not meant to during pregnancy and were fine

Thank you all! I’ve been completely fine, think it just panicked when I realise you’re not supposed to eat it haha🫣😂x

Its only because of the risk of listeria, which is really really low. There's more listeria cases from pre packaged salad bags than salmon each year 👍🏻 so if you start to feel unwell, let them know..if you're fine, then you're fine 😊

I’m 32 weeks pregnant and have eaten so many things during my pregnancy that you’re advised not to, purely because half of the time I didn’t really know! And was struggling with eating so just allowing myself to eat what I thought I’d manage. It’s only a risk because of listeria, which is a low risk and it is said to possibly be in SO many foods, that people eat every single day, and you don’t hear of it that often or at all. If you become unwell, or notice anything alarming then get checked out, but you should be okay! I know the panic all too well as I ate pate and apparently you’re really not supposed to, but I am fine x
