My way of looking at it is the same Liz. What I find most disturbing is the erroneous belief that pasteurized food cannot grow listeriosis. Women assume if they eat brie etc that is pasteurized that they will not come in contact with listeriosis.
That is absolutely untrue - and it does concern me...
One of the main issues seems to be the mis-information, conflicting information or lack of information available. I thought I was well informed on what to eat and not eat during pregnancy etc but still managed to find out only now that runny eggs are not ok. How did this slip through the keeper?
Nai - uncooked eggs can be a source of salmonella... So therefore eggs should be thoroughly cooked - that is no runny yolks!
One of my favourite things when pregnant with DD13 was "egg flips" - you know a raw egg, milk and vanilla... Actually sounds repulsive now - but I couldn't get enough of them! I got sick from "food poisoning" - and this was attributed to the eggs... So, it can happen...
Flowerchild and Hoobley - All differences aside, I think there are ALOT of very lucky women to have BOTH OF YOU in their corner!! Yes we all have our different beliefs and opinions, but at the end of the day, from all the different threads I have read on BB, you have both been a wealth of information, support, knowledge and encouragement to so many.
