I can't find my info, but I know there is a type of food poisoning that is REALLY not good to get while you are pg. I think I got food poisoning today, and the only thing I can link it to is the eggs I had this AM for breakfast. ugh. Anybody have any info?

Listeria is the really bad one.
From eggs (that are not cooked all the way through) or chicken and other poultry, you can get salmonella.
Salmonella incubates for 6-48 hours then presents with mild to sever abdominal pain, diarrhea, suden fever up to 102, nausea and vomitting. It does not cross the placenta or damage the baby. Symptoms usually resolve on their own.
