I avoided them last pregnancy due to paranoia.. this time ive taken a more relaxed approach.. and had a few mcflurries (i LOVE mcflurries!!) No listeria here

Dont worry yourself..... there are sooooooo many rules and regulations heaped on our shoulders nowadays its cruel!!!

Just remember in the 1950s smoking was good for you even during pregnancy hahaha just saying...... how times have changed hey

I've eaten them in all my pregnancies

I contacted my local mcdonalds and was assured that the mcflurry machine was completely flushed out once a week. McDonalds will have to keep up with their hygiene standards religiously, but as other people have said probably best avoiding the ice cream vans as I guess they're not as well regulated!

Im one of those 'what if' people and know that id be the one in a million to have a complication so I haven't had any at all!
Id say the raw egg yolk would have been worse than the soft serve anyway lol Im sure youll be fine!

 

[surprisepg]

I wouldnt worry, Ive had countless mcflurries during this pregnancy lol

I've been dying for a Pinkberry pomegranate frozen yogurt! I haven't had any due to paranoia but I had a friend who was pregnant and she had it all the time. Some of us just worry so much because of all the things we read I guess.

I happily eat runny egg yolk if it's a lion stamped egg, as it's a sign that the bird has been vaccinated against salmonella. They're also guaranteed to not be too old, and to have been handled and stored as safely as possible.

I'm not sure if there's an australian equivalent, but it's a decent system over here

Oh, now I am craving a mcflurry!!! I had a soft serve ice cream from mc d's in my first trimester (I didn't know that there was any type of a risk) and I had soft serve yogurt in my 2nd trimester. Soft serve ice cream was never mentioned to me as a no-no in any of my dr visits or in any of the paperwork I was given so I wouldn't worry about it!!
