Deli meat/ hot dogs

I do it, just be smart about it. The risk is so minuscule. You’re more likely to get sick from salad but they don’t tell us not to eat that. Just don’t have sketchy gas station subs lol

What said! My OB has never told me to avoid deli meats or even salads, as long as I’m smart about where I’m eating them. I definitely don’t eat either as much as I used to but I’m not completely avoiding them either.

I stick to freshly sliced deli meats. Now I'm craving this with no bread but wrapped in cheese and a bit of mustard

Even though the risk nowadays is pretty low, my husband insists that I don't take that risk. I would just eat some when he's not home anyway, but there's always that chance that he could find out and frankly for something like this I would rather just keep the peace and give it up while I'm pregnant.

yummm! I’m low carb ( per my doctors instructions) and I used to eat those a lot before pregnancy and now I want some NOW.

I don't even like hot dogs but LET ME TELL YOU- I was craving one the other day and I ate it🤷‍♀️ for deli meat- I just heat it up, that's normally how I ate it anyway even before pregnancy.

I do. Just make sure it hasn’t been sitting in your fridge forever. The risk is tiny and if you are not going to eat deli meat then you might as well not eat any sort of lettuce either.

my husband is also adamant on me not eating them either, but I’m low carb for my diabetes and my options are slim pickings for what I actually want to eat lol and I’m convincing him I’m eating some 😂

Deli meat and sausage as long as they are cooked / heated are ok, that what two OBGYN told me

I just had subway yesterday and previously. I was told the meat need to be heated up by my OB.

I'm glad you asked this, since I was just about to ask this as I want jimmy johns but I hate warmed up deli meats. I have craved hot dogs and deli meats this whole time.

go get your Jimmy John’s mama!

My doctor said it’s save as long as you heat up the deli meat

My ob said that hotdogs and deli meat is totally safe as long as the hotdogs are steaming hot as for deli meat she says it's safe if you get it straight from the deli and packaged deli meat is fine too but to make sure you eat it within 3 days so idk 🤷🏻‍♀️

I had subway and coneys this past week and it’s okay as long as they are heated up

same I had it to today and just heated it up

I agree with a lot of these women on where you get them matters. I cook my own hot dogs at home so I know how well they were cooked and that they weren't sitting out in a hot dog cart for 5 hours. I also ate raw fish in my first pregnancy but only when we were visiting family in CA because I knew the fish was fresh where in UT where I live they have to freeze the fish to come here which is where bacteria can get in.

I ate deli with my sandwich because I was really craving Ham and Salami and I‘m just fine was eating it last week almost every day :)
