every once in awhile won’t hurt you….google what type of fish you can eat.

You can eat fish, just not in large amounts. Just watch your intake and you and baby will be just fine.

thats fine its just flake you cant have or fish with lots of mercury you must stay away from

Mercury is the bad thing about certain types of fish as well as pollutants in fresh caught fish from certain bodies of water. Canned tuna is also something to eat in moderation with certain types being safer than others.
Almost all fish are on the “eat in moderation” list, but a few are “never eat”.
Here’s the FDA’s site with recommendations. There are many useful links on this page, including the advisories re: fish.

moderation is ok.
