Medium to medium rare steak

[First Baby White]

I just had a medium to medium rare sirloin steak bought from asda and now I'm panicking I will harm the baby. The internet has mixed messages on whether this is ok, what damage will I have done?

I had a medium steak with blood around 15 weeks and I was ok! It's just the 'risk'

I wouldn't worry too much hun x

Probably nothing, its too late to worry now, I wolfed down a full crab at about 6 week pregnant because I hadn't realised I couldn't eat shellfish, everything was fine. It couldn't be helped afterwards x

I've had steaks that were medium and I've been fine x

If you had it last night, and you have not been up with horrendous food poisoning all night, then I would hazard a guess that there are no I'll effects at all for you and baby!!

The advice changed between when I was pregnant with my daughter (2011) to when I was pregnant with my son last year. I ate medium rare beef reasonably frequently through my first pregnancy and a couple of times in my second. No ill effects here!
