thw whole mercury thing confused me. When
my sister was pregnant with #1 she was
told to eat alot of fish and that mercury
wasn't a problem and then when she was
pregnant with #2 (only 6 months later) she
was told it was bad

They change their minds on this. It isn't
bad in moderation but it isn't
something you should be consuming every
day.

I was told to only eat tuna approx 3 or 4
times a week (I think.. I hate it anyway
so I didn't pay too much attention) &
to avoid eating shark, merlin &
swordfish altogether.

I'm not really a big fan of fish but with
stephens recent heart attack we have to
try and cut down on certain foods and add
in a few good ones.
