Pink lamb or beef

[First Baby White]

Hello,

I am just cooking other half some tea for when he gets home from work, it is either beef or lamb, I cant tell it is just defrosted on the side. There was a thin peice of meat that looked cooked so I ate a bit then looked and it was only very slightly pink in the middle. Is it ok, I didnt eat the rest I chucked it just wasnt sure??

I ate both when PG. I had a rare steak a week before giving birth. It was yum

TBH if its beef I'd not worry in the least as its the outside that contains any nastys so cooking will kill it all off.

Lamb, for me personally, I'd not worry either. I can't recall ever reading pink lamb was bad for you when PG.

Also if it did make you ill, it would affect you not LO IIRC. Give you an upset tummy.

I've eaten quite a bit of pink beef and lamb throughout my pregnancy and evrything seems to be fine. I don't think you've got anything to worry about
