Is it safe to eat Tinapa and other dried fish like daing while preggy?

Hello girls, im almost 10wks preg and ive eaten monggo with tinapa twice.. sabi ng mama ko ok lang nmad kumain nun but i just wana make sure so pls share ur thoughts! thank u so much :-)

hello!
i'm 32weeks 1 day today and since I found out preggy ako until now, siguro nakakain ako twice or thrice ng dried anchovies (dilis) and tuyo. Paired with monggo also. I think the reason why they say bawal is because we shouldn't consume too much sodium, e diba salty ang dried fishes.

Still, I think the key is moderation.
nakainom din ako thrice ng coffee in that span of time, junk foods, instant noodles at chocolates. okay lang siguro tikim-tikim, just don't over indulge.

i think ok lang, basta wag madalas. pag pinigilan mo kasi, baka mas lalo mag-crave and mapadami ang kain when you get the chance.
i'm 17weeks preggers na, and my knuckles feel swollen when i wake up in the morning. it got worse when i had instant pancit canton for dinner one night (couldn't help it, i was craving!). pag dinidisiplina ko sarili ko na bawasan ang salty/high sodium food, nababawasan din yung swelling.
i read somewhere that too much sodium causes water retention, kaya sumasakit ang knuckles/joints. to avoid this, reduce sodium intake and drink more fluids -- strange, right? but i guess taking in more fluids will help wash away the sodium.

I agree with the sisses here. Basta in moderation lang naman... mapa-sweet at salty food. Inom na lang din ng water para ma-flush out agad sa system yung extra salt. Tsaka more veggies and fruits pa din para masapawan mga junk food.

Buti may thread na pala bout tinapa. I was about to ask pa naman.
I'm planning to cook ginataang kalabasa and sitaw with tinapa kasi later. Check ko sana if hindi bawal.
Cravings!m

Fish is okay as long as taken in moderation because of mercury content.

basta wag sosobra okay lang. Tsaka ma alat din kasi ang tinapa, kaya wag sobra.
dyan ako nag crave yung first trimester ko, pati tuyo. kaya sobrang ingat na ingat ako. anything in moderation, okay lang.

mrsdee - agree with you sis. ako din paminsan minsan junk food. actually, sabi ng ob ko, yung mga kinakain naman natin, minsan mas nakakasama pa satin kaysa kay baby.

I am craving for tinapa and dilis. I read somewhere na wag daw kumain ng smoked fish due to Listeria. Pero I ate tinapa anyway. Na prito naman sya. Gusto ko pa ng tinapang bangus!

nung first trimester ako, eto ang gustong gusto ko kainin saka yung dried pusit
