Many types of sushi contain raw meat or fish, which may contain parasites which could get your baby sick. While the risk of contracting a parasitic infection from sushi is relatively low, and the infection could probably not cross the placenta and make your baby sick, the gastrointestinal problems it could cause in you are serious enough that it could hinder your baby’s development. Because of this, The Mayo Clinic recommends that pregnant women avoid sushi during pregnancy, but many doctors are mixed on the issue, so you may want to ask your practitioner for his or her opinion. Additionally, many types of sushi do not contain raw meat or fish, and are safe to consume as long as they follow your other dietary guidelines.
