I have been a lurker for quite some time and have learned a great deal from the discussions on Lactnet.  I have a question that I have not so far seen covered.  I was teaching a breastfeeding class last night and a mom asked me if she could eat sushi while breastfeeding, since she was told not to eat it during pregnancy.  I told her that I could not cite literature stating that this practice was unsafe for breastfed babies but that I would ask someone much wiser than I.  Anybody have any research on the subject?
Thanks!

Hope this makes sense--I worked OB until seven o'clock this morning after teaching the breastfeeding class. (Yawn)
