A member asked:
Im pregnant and ate soft serve from a fast food chain 3 days ago. didnt know this was a listeria risk, what should i look for in symptoms and should i get a blood test thank you?

Most commercial ice cream will be quite aseptic; Listeria should not be an issue. I would expect you to have fever, bloating, diarrhea and to be quite ill. Some people have few symptoms. Consult your obstetrician.
