Can i eat tuna in pregnancy?

Tuna is okay occasionally, but try to eat fresh local water fish instead as they are fresher and safer. If you eat tuna and feel any stomach pain or severe vomiting, please contact your doctor immediately.

If you have thyroid or other hormonal imbalances during pregnancy, you need to be very careful with seafood. I'd highly suggest regular thyroid tests and checking with your doctor before adding tuna to your diet.

You can eat canned light tuna in moderation, but limit it to once a week due to mercury concerns.

My sister was told by her doctor to limit tuna because of mercury. Canned light tuna is fine once in a while, but she mostly stuck to salmon and local pomfret to be safe.

Please be very careful with tuna because high mercury can affect the baby's development. I had a difficult pregnancy, so I avoided it completely. It's always best to ask your doctor for safe fish options.

I ate canned light tuna sandwiches once a week during my pregnancy. Just make sure the label says 'light' tuna, not 'albacore' which has much higher mercury. It is a great, easy protein source if eaten within limits.

Yaar, actually tuna is okay but only canned light one. Fresh tuna steaks are high in mercury, so avoid them completely. Stick to local fish like pomfret if you want to be totally safe.

I can only share what my wife did during her pregnancy. She avoided fresh tuna altogether and only had canned light tuna occasionally, ensuring it was well within the limits suggested by her nutritionist.

Haan, tuna kha sakte ho but bohot thoda quantity mein na. Mercury level high hota hai isme, toh canned light tuna hi lena and limit mein khana. Better to ask your doc once.
