Uncertainty exists in recommendations for reducing prenatal exposure to mercury.

M B Flanders-Stepans1.   

Abstract

The Environmnetal Working Group, Health Care Without Harm (1999) recommends that pregnant women avoid eating tuna, swordfish, or shark and that young children avoid eating more than one serving of tuna per week. Childbirth educators are in a unique position to educate women about the dangers of methylmercury exposure during pregnancy.
