35 weeks pregnant. ate off dirty fork with old cooked food from my sink, cleaned it running hot water & wiping. could i get listeria from this??

You cleaned it : To ensure safety next time use clean silverware or wash the previously used one with soap before use. Listeria seems unlikely in the scenario that you have described.
