safe foods to eat?

Question

i accidentally ate a breakfast egg & cheese muffin thing that has american cheese on it, and yesterday i completely wasn’t thinking and had a sandwich with deli meat that i didn’t heat. i’m 5 weeks. can this be harmful?

Answer

Hun dont worry about it. You will be fine xo... Alot of us dont even know we are pregnant at 5wks.. I ddnt find out until 6wks.. Its more cautionary to be aware of deli foods etc of things that could be or get contaminated..

Answer

Deli meat is the least of your concerns. Produce is far more likely to harbor food born illnesses. You will be fine and so will baby

Answer

Cheese is only a possible carrier of listeria when it’s non-pasteurized (which I think American cheese typically always is?)- soft cheeses like goat or Brie are what you need to double check on.
Listeria is a harmful bacteria for baby because it can cause meningitis bc they don’t have a complete immune system. 
Deli meat- maybe just heat it up to be on the safe side and reduce your stress about it :)

Answer

The breakfast muffin is definitely nothing to worry about.  You can eat cheese and eggs.  The sandwich while some might say don’t eat cold deli meat the risk of listeria is extremely small.  Some people choose to heat it up and others don’t eat it at all, but I’ve also seen tons of women here who eat it cold.  Chances are it won’t be a problem, but if you are worried when you are craving a sandwich go to a sub shop and just have them toast your sandwich.  That’s what I do.

Answer

I got a papercut, should I go to the er? 🙄 sorry to be rude, but come on! 
Where are these people getting their information they can’t have eggs or cheese? 
You’re more likely to get listeria from unwashed veggies than u are lunch meat.

Answer

None of what you ate will harm your baby.
I've eaten deli sandwiches several times and the breakfast sandwich unless the eggs were raw is perfectly fine. Try not to stress too much.
Stress can be more dangerous than any deli meat.
