Lobster tail

Is it safe to eat Maine lobster tails? I just ordered red lobster because I’m craving it hardcore, I got popcorn shrimp (that I know I can have) but I also ordered a Maine lobster tail. It doesn’t say it’s high in mercury but idk now, have you ate it while pregnant? I’m 36 weeks today.

I ate lobster during my pregnancy and was fine but it was cooked. So make sure it’s cooked and not raw fish. Also, 36 weeks is pretty far along for mercury to affect you. You’d have to eat a lot of tuna fish before that happened. Haha. Enjoy!

It is safe. As long as cooked

Lobster and other shellfish are bottom feeders literally do don’t have high mercury (that’s for fish at the top of the food chain who eat lots of smaller fish and accumulate mercury like swordfish or tuna) and cooked fish is fine in pregnancy

As long as it's not high in mercury it's safe to eat it. I'm 26 weeks and I've been eating it and muscles like crazy after I tried it for the first time months ago lol.

Yes! I just had one the other night I was craving them! So I googled 😉

I ate lobster throughout my pregnancy and we were just fine :)

Maternity allowance

Hi guys! So I am currently on maternity leave with my boy and pregnant again, my maternity leave is almost over (I took the full 52 weeks off) so I am due back work soon! I have just had an email saying I’m not eligible for statuary maternity pay again and they are sending me a form to apply for maternity allowance! I would only be back at work for approx 6-8 weeks before going on maternity again! So I thought I would use my holidays instead of actually going back but the manager has actually refused them. What I’m wondering is, if I was to hand in my notice, would I still technically be eligible for maternity allowance and get the full amount or would it be the £27 a week? Because if I did do that, then they would obviously still have to pay me my holidays that I’m entitled to?

Change of religion when married.. advice please!

Hi all, my husband has very recently and out of the blue turned to Christianity (we were atheist). I’ve been super supportive, we’re speaking a lot about it, I’m reading the bible to understand. To be clear I don’t have an issue with it at all (I went to a Christian school, just wouldn’t say I’ve found Jesus myself 🤷🏼‍♀️).
I just wondered if anyone has been in a similar situation? What if I can’t come to the same conclusion and we end up not being of the same religion?

Really hoping someone’s gone through similar and may give me an idea of how it turned out please 🙏

Why am I so pathetic...

I just cant walk away from this "friendship" that is so glaringly obviously one way..I go 3 days feel great and then just end up caving in and messaging to see how they are

I feel im worth more than this however something in me is clearly desperate to retain the 1 friend I have 😔 even writing this is sound so stupid
