Accidentally ate expired chocolate pot pudding

[LOVE456]

Accidentally ate a low fat choc pot (aldi) before realising it was 4 weeks out of date and now feel v. stupid and worried, am 5 weeks pregnant. Have I caused harm to the baby?

No harm in calling 111 or your nearest early pregnancy unit if you are worried. But… I would have thought almost certainly not.

If it smelt and tastes fine, it was most likely absolutely okay to eat. I’d expect at the very worst you might get a bit of a dodgy tummy tomorrow but nothing that would affect an embryo.

I think it is full food poisoning that can be dangerous in pregnancy (e.g from undercooked meat) but I wouldn’t have thought out of date puddings could cause that.!

🙄

Oh god please don't call 111!

You'll be fine

Do you feel sick? Vomiting? No? Then relax.

No need to call 111. You are obviously fine

I thought you were going to say it was months out of date.
You and baby will be absolutely fine 🙂

I second this. It will be fine! Even if you did get food poisoning, which is unlikely it is still overwhelmingly likely that it will be fine.....

You will be absolutely fine.
