Accidentally drank unpasteurised Kombucha at 9 weeks pregnant and panicking!

[Mary1986]

I stupidly drank half a bottle of ginger kombucha I grabbed from Sainsburys earlier this week in a last ditch attempt at getting rid of my constant nausea as I heard a while ago it's beneficial for that.

Anyway, I've checked the label and it's unpasteurised and now I'm panicking about Listeria and the effects on thr baby - am I overreacting?

I've had a bit of an upset stomach since then but nothing overly concerning combined with all the other crappy 1st trimester symptoms.

You are overreacting- you'll be fine xx

I drank it all the way through my pregnancies - it's not advised but the risk is so small. You won't get listeria.

The risk is still incredibly low, you’re overthinking

What?!

The chance of getting listeria from kombucha is vanishingly small. You will be fine.

@Mary1986 you'll be totally fine! I remember drinking kombucha too without thinking there was any reason not to and then I saw it wasn't an ideal drink for pregnancy.... my daughter is playing on her mat now and she 100% normal 😂 (and very cute).

Ignore @Islamic32, she's on all the threads stirring things up.

@Islamic32 why are you all over the pregnancy board trying to wind people up!

Ignore this.
I can be quite an anxious person and know a lot about kombucha. You will be absolutely fine. Stop stressing and move into nice thoughts x

Thanks for all your replies, I'm never sure how serious breaking these "rules" are 😄
