... and now I am really panicking.
I am 34 weeks pregnant. I did not touch any sheep or lambs but my daughters stroked them and fed them and I held my daughters' hands inbetween them petting the animals. I washed my hands carefully on leaving, as did my girls, but after a few minutes on Dr Google I am really worried.
Does anyone know how big the risk is in the 3rd trimester and whether it is worth asking the GP for antibiotics incase of infection?
And is the infection risk any greater than from eating pink meat (which I have also done this pregnancy)?
