Hi mummies, please help. I need advise on whether overeating fish will be harmful to baby? Baby is on total bf, and I've been eating fish daily especially during confinement period, I had 2 meals daily. But now i was told that fishes contain mercury that will harm babies development. Is it true? I'm worried should I throw away all the BM that I had stored in freezer?

This article says "fish rich in omega-3 fatty acid but low in mercury content" is okay. So just watch for mercury content. If the fish you usually consume is not high in mercury then your stored BM should be fine. http://sg.theasianparent.com/breastfeeding-diet-faq/2/
