Toxoplasmosis: If you are diagnosed at the time of pregnancy there is a modest risk of transmission (1:1000) . If you are diagnosed with it before pregnancy then the risk is lower. Treatment is complex. Go to http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1479740/ for an authoritative discussion. Was your cat tested?
