Steak

I personally think you’d be fine! As you say it’s just a one off and if it’s from a respectable restaurant there is minimal risk.

I’ll be honest I went for a roast the other day and the roast beef came pink. I ate it and me and baby are fine! Have the steak I’m sure you and baby will be ok, especially as you are eating it out so will be stored and cooked etc at exact temperatures xx

We are going to tgi Fridays I’m sure I’ll be fine I just needed someone else’s opinion as my boyfriend is apprehensive for me to have it 😂x

I think if it's from a place with a good reputation and hygiene rating it should be alright! I don't like steak but I've eaten sushi during my pregnancy from places I trust and tried before and didn't have any issues at all... These recommendations are mostly about minimising the risk of food poisoning, so I think it's really up to you personally what you feel comfortable with! ☺️

i think you won’t enjoy it as much as your cravings suggest because you will be uming and aring whether or not you should do it🤣 knowing my luck if i did it as a one off i’d end up getting food poising or something🤣

A little of what you fancy does you good 😄 do it

I am craving a big fat fillet steak! I have mine medium and have been told off the midwife not to eat uncooked meat for obvious reasons, I wm waiting till baby is here then going to have a bloody good one! Think if you have one you will be worrying throughout eating it xxx

I like rare steak so am avoiding it because of the bacteria, but cooked medium/medium well done you should be fine!x

I asked the midwife and she it was fine! Just not too bloody x

Im sure it’ll be okay. I literally been trying my best to eat it well done and have given up lmao so I’ve been eating it here and there like once every 3 weeks. I just eat it medium/ medium well instead of medium rare like I usually do.

Thankyou everyone 🤍

I think the main risk with undercooked meat is toxoplasmosis rather than food poisoning. If you trust the restaurant then it should be fine.

I’ve had a medium steak and baby is absolutely fine. So if you feel like it I’d say as a one off is fine x

I’ve had medium steak a couple of times in both my pregnancies with no issues. I’m told to eat more unprocessed red meat, so… Plus the risk from food in the UK is incredibly low, especially if it looks and smells fine and is well within the use by date.

I had one at the weekend - asked for it to be cooked just enough to not be pink and it was perfect! Thoroughly enjoyed it! X

I only eat rare steak and it’s my favourite food and not eating it has been the hardest thing in pregnancy😂 can’t wait to go miller and carter when he’s out!

I’ve eaten steak multiple times throughout my pregnancy and I eat mine medium rare. It’s quite rare to get toxoplasmosis and if it’s a decent restaurant/you’ve cooked it well yourself, I really wouldn’t worry!!

I have steak every week and runny eggs. It's my 5th pregnancy and we've all been fine
