Spoiled chicken: As long as you did not swallow any and get it into your system , you are probably fine. If you do get sick in the next few days then you should call your doctor for advice.

OK: Both you and the baby should be OK. You did the right thing spitting it out. If you develop any symptoms (fever, GI distress, joint aches, etc) over the next 2-3 days, call your Physician for advice.
