Lamb is fairly safe hun I really wouldn't worry it's very unlikely you would end up Ill from it.

I heard lamb carried toxo or is that just lambs in the field hahaha x

I wouldn't worry too much as long as its hot through I'd imagine that would kill any bacteria xx

Well it fell off the bone it was really lovely and tender and was cooked all morning x

 

[wifeywifey]

It can but I think it more applies to rare cooked food not just a little undercooked iykwim. As all ready said it will have most likely been hot and killed all the germs even tho the colour didn't turn.

The advice when I was pregnant with my first was that lamb and beef were safe to eat on the slightly rare side (this was only 2011/12). The advice hasn't really changed, only that the NHS are now waiting for the Foods Standards Agency's research on the toxoplasmosis risk.

I ate rare beef throughout my last pregnancy and have always preferred lamb slightly pink. I'm not doing anything different this time round. I wouldn't worry if I were you. Advice changes all the time with regard to what pregnant women can/can't eat! My mum was advised to eat liver once a week with me and I turned out just fine!!!
