I'm not - but not a big fan of red meat either

smooch, i understand about eating while pregnant, because i too dont agree with pushing your beliefs on anyone else, but i dont think i could do that. i certainly wont ask my children to be vegetarians themselves, but i wont ingest it for myself or anyone else! there are many many ways to get enough nutrition without any kinds of meat.

Re: who is a vegetarian?

octobergirl, i go back and forth with it, and i know vegetarians can get the nutrients we need by eating supplements, but i don't think there has been enough research into what a fetus needs, and can those needs be met by the supplements that are fine for me. i just don't want to take that chance on a life other than my own. but i completely respect anyone who is a veggie while pregnant.
