Re: does everyone eat enough fish?
You just have to be ware of fish that are high in mercury. Avoid tuna. I also read that we should be avoiding swordfish as well.

You couldn't pay me enough to eat fish....so, no, I probably don't eat enough.

I think shellfish are OK - like shrimp, scallops and also flounder, etc. I eat shrimp here and there. I found a link that breaks down some guidelines:
Fish Food
Good luck!

Re: does everyone eat enough fish?
I definately don't. And, I love all seafood. But DH doesn't like it so I tend not to make it.

Re: does everyone eat enough fish?
I don't eat a lot of fish, but I sprinkle some flax seed on my breakfast every morning. Flax seed also has Omega-3, just not as much as fish.

Re: does everyone eat enough fish?
Nope, I don't eat fish or red meat and hardly any chicken either. My dr. said just keep taking my prenatals and it was fine.

I really don't like fish. So no, I don't eat enough fish. I actually don't eat any fish.

Re: does everyone eat enough fish?
Love fish and all seafood.
Maybe you guys aren't crazy about it because of the way its prepared???
DH was the same way, way back when he was just BF now, he too is a fish/seafood lover.
