My mom texted me and asked if I had heard anything about hamsters and pregnancy and I said no. Apparently there is a possibility they and all rodents i.e. Guinea pigs, mice, rats, chinchillas can carry a disease, lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus (LCMV), that that is harmful during pregnancy. Ugh. We have a hamster we got in November for my dd. I have never heard of it before. Has anyone else? Am I just in the dark? Have your doctors mentioned this at all?
