I love when people don't know what they're talking about....

and freak my DH out!!!!

We went to Jordan's Lobster for lunch on Saturday and he was talking to his friend's wife.

DH told her we were going and that I love their lobster rolls (YUM!) and she said to DH that I shouldn't be eating lobster.......

Umm, excuse me, but lobster, clams, crab, oysters, scallops and shrimp can be eaten as often as I like thank you. Please mind your own business and get your info straight, now that I have to convince DH that I am not trying to kill my turkey, he/she is just fine.....

AND she has 2 kids!

That is too funny! Can't tell you how many times DH has given me stink eye with my food orders and asked me if I am "allowed" to eat certain foods!

It must be that much harder when someone gives him misinformation! Some people!!!!

Yes, I often get the "Can you eat that?" question from DH too, and he is particularly suspicious of seafood. I keep showing him my seafood list, but it seems to go in one ear and out the other.

I know, I love when people comment on your food choices, especially when they are wrong.

A lot of doctors still recommend against eating lobster, shrimp, etc. My doctor has in moderation but my sil's doctor has not to have it at all.

Don't get me wrong, I eat everything in moderation, but to make such a brazen statement scared the hell out of DH!

I wasn't eating it until I read in What to Expect Week by Week that you could. If you have that book, the list of acceptable seafood is somewhere around week 13 or 14. Show it to your DH!

Chat Icon We had this same encounter over the weekend. And it came from a person who's wife was eating hot dogs and got dehydrated while preggo.

I can understand that some dr do play on the cautious side, but the harshness we got is not necessary.

I was also accused that I was dieting too. I guess the 2 plates of penne ala vodka and cesear salad was a sign I was dietingChat Icon Or it was the fact that I turned down cake. I was full and knew my DH & I were getting sushi later and it was chocolate and I am choosing not to eat chocolate or caffeine as much as possible).

I was told 2 servings a week of shellfish is FINE.


People should just mind their P's and Q's!
