I feel like I'm probably going completely over the top. So id like people to confirm if I am? I was cutting raw beef and ended up cutting myself with the knife. Of course washed the cut straight away but could this infect me with any nasties like Toxoplasmosis etc or would I have to actually eat the raw meat for that to happen? Am I being an overreacting pregnant women ConfusedConfusedBlushBlush

You will be fine.

Sure you'll be fine. Apparently when my Mum was pregnant with me she craved raw meat and used to eat slithers of raw steak straight from the butcher!

It's normal to worry a bit more during pregnancy but try not to worry about everything. By the time the baby comes you'll be exhausted.

@Spooples I know you're right it's just so much pressure when another little life can be affected! But thank you
