Sushi or No Sushi

임신 기간 동안 여러가지 해야될일 하지 말아야 될일들이 많다..
재밌었던것은 문화마다 다르다는것 (당연 하겠지만)..
여기선 생선회 절대로 못먹게 했다..
보는 책마다, web site마다 회는 절대 No No No No No..

내가 주로 이용하던 babycenter web site (http://www.babycenter.com/)에 의하면:

"If you ask different people you'll get different opinions, but I would say no because of the risk of parasites. It's not a really big issue, but it is a problem because parasites do live in the fish meat -- and while sushi chefs are very careful, that doesn't mean they detect every single one. And because pregnancy suppresses your immune system a little, you're much more susceptible to serious illness from any food-borne organism. A parasitic infection probably couldn't get through the placental barrier since the placenta is a pretty good filter for blocking out things. But a parasitic infection could cause you liver or gastrointestinal problems that would then affect your baby. Some parasitic infections can lead to anemia or serious malnourishment in the mother or even cause miscarriage. Although the chances of getting a parasitic infection are slim, the consequences are severe enough that you wouldn't want to take the risk. There is also the risk of eating fish that has a marine toxin in it. Bluefish, mackerel, mahi-mahi, and tuna can carry a histamine toxin that can cause flushing, dizziness, and burning of the mouth and throat. It probably isn't too dangerous, though. (Expert: Larry Pickering, infectious disease specialist, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA)"

무지 좋아했던거지만.. 안먹었다.. (내가 한 태교의 2번째쯤 될것 같다)
위의 빨간 글씨에 적힌대로.. 혹시나 해서.. I didn't want to take the risk!!

울 시어머님 말씀이 한국에선 입맛돌게 한다고 일부러 임산부 사먹인다고 하시던데..
내가 안먹었더니 결국 어머님 말씀보다 책을 더 믿는다고 좀 서운해 하시기도..

결국 엄마 자신의 선택이지만 고민해야 될 일들 정말 많다 (고민 하려고 하면)..
