Pregnancy Over 40 Watch Your Beef Consumption
I was a vegetarian for many years, but I started eating meat because I though it could help me get pregnant (I've read conflicting information about whether or not meat hurts or helps).See Also: Trying To Conceive As A Vegetarian (www.getpregnantover40.com)
Even after I started eating meat, I didn't eat a lot of it (maybe once per week). Here's an interesting article that draws a connection between pregnant women eating meat and its possible connection to low sperm counts in their sons.

From the article:
CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that maternal beef consumption, and possibly xenobiotics in beef, may alter a man's testicular development in utero and adversely affect his reproductive capacity.
