Fresh cream

[Chocoholicmonster]

Fresh cream - yay or nay?
I've tried looking online but cant get a clear answer. Brought a scone with fresh cream & jam in & now I'm not sure if I should eat it. Thank you x

Fine. It's pasteurised

I'm currently 18 weeks pregnant and I have had so many scones and cream.

Eat it and enjoy

Of coarse your can eat it.

Of course you can eat cream. What do you imagine the problem could be?

It's fine. If you can't get a clear answer online then that generally means it's nothing to worry about! The NHS foods in pregnancy list is the one I go by.

That's what I've been using mostly too, Artioo2 - Thank you all

JanetOfTheApes - I don't know, hence why I asked. When it's the first healthy pregnancy after a few miscarriages you'd rather just play safe to be honest. And when searching online has mixed answers with the bad ones screaming all horrific side effects at you, I didn't see the issue to spend 30 seconds asking Mumsnet rather than worrying.

There is playing it safe, and there is being obsessed. Unless you are going to consult mn about every thing you eat, you need to chill a bit.
I've had multiple m/c, but getting obsessive about what you eat achieves nothing.

If you find websites that tell you there are horrific side effects (like what?) from eating cream, you are well into the crazy part of Dr Google. Step away!

Janet I agree, there's cautious and there's silly. Bit of common sense and the NHS website should be your guide. Otherwise, the neurotics on Google will chip away at your sanity.

Ignore Janetoftheapes and congrats on your pregnancy. It wasn't an unreasonable question if you weren't sure.

There is nothing wrong with double checking.
It is ok to worry and ask the question if you are not sure.

JanetOfTheApes & Mslg - A simple yes or no to my simple question would of done ... But thank you for the time you've both taken out of your day to criticise my question all the same

Thank you to everyone else. I shall go & enjoy my cream scone now

I was trying to be helpful, but whatever. Enjoy the extreme anxiety instead

Ditto, I've had a miscarriage as well and would drive myself mad if I questioned and googled every morsel that I ate with this pregnancy

As everybody has said its fine. I used the NHS guidance + a dash of common sense but after a late miscarraige last year I do understand the over cautiousness. I'm only just relaxing now (33wks) but still have moments of anxiety - although I can't eat anything now as I have GD and am on iron tablets for anemia and that restricts what you can eat even further. End is in sight now though - I have a doughnut and a pizza washed down with a G&T. followed by runny cheese crackers in my sights.

I'm 26 weeks and now really want a cream and jam scone like you described! Thinking about where to get one on my way home from work..

There is nothing wrong with getting a bit of reassurance on here to things you're unsure about BTW.

No question is too silly OP. Enjoy your scone and good luck with your pregnancy. BTW the NHS website is a good source of information if you're worried.
