Help - ate undercooked chicken
Hi, after weeks and weeks I had a dinner outside, only after one bite from my grilled chicken to see the second slice was pink and had a bit of blood from a vein. I am now freaking out that I ate undercooked chicken - even if one bite. Does anyone know what to do in this situation, have you ever experienced something like this? I am so very afraid my baby will be hurt - I will call midwife tomorrow too…

Hey! I went to a family dinner and the chicken was undercooked 🫠 and I'd eaten it (it was in a sauce and I didn't realise) I was 20 weeks pregnant at the time and I had suffered with diarrhea, I kept my fluids up and it passed within 24 hours, baby is perfectly fine! I'm now 26weeks + and all is well x
I did something similar to this. I ate a chicken Kiev and it was raw inside and I'd already eaten quite a bit. It was in date so was fine. I'm sure you'll be ok too. Drink lots of water and have a bit of toast x
Chicken should be cooked properly so you do not catch harmful bacterias and get food poisoning. Just monitor yourself for about 4 to 5 days and see if you have any symptoms for example.. diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, fever and baby movements. Fingers crossed you are perfectly fine and you did not catch any harmful bacteria and baby will be fine x
