Okay, seriously. I'm tired of getting my life threatened for thinking about eating a hot dog and getting a subway sub..


Honestly, is something horrible gonna happen to my son if I eat a hot dog and a five dollar footlong?

 I eat both of them.

Did when I was pregnant with DS and he's a perfectly healthy 14 month old little boy.

LOL. I've been wondering about this too. I still eat lunch meat and most other things and haven't had any problems. I'm not sure what the concern is. I'll be interested to hear what everyone else says.

MEH I don't eat hot dogs anyway, but I LOVE me some subway. The one thing I do miss eating though is ceasar salads... I love those things but DH won't let me have them =(

I finally broke down and enjoyed a lovely all beef hot dog yum. I wasn't sure why pregnant women shouldn't eat hot dogs to begin with. I eat subway on occasion as well .I try to justify by getting it toasted.

lunch meats can contain a bacteria which can cause micarriage, preterm birth and other problems. if you want a subway have them toast it so it heats up and kills and the bacteria if it is there..hotdogs are the same, must be heated..otherwise no it will not hurt..i ate quizons, subway and ate hotdogs thru both of my pregnancies..
