I still eat fish and prawns... probably they are high in mercury, so just eat in moderation is fine

The concern is certain fish contains high level or mercury. So it’s not good for pregnancy.

😨 I didn’t hear from my gynae before so I continued to eat!

Yep i still eat prawns just make sure it is cooked well

Prawns can be eaten... as long as it is fully cooked.
