I'm really hoping you'll all just tell me I'm being ridiculous!

Earlier this evening I was preparing meatballs for tomorrow nights dinner.
So obviously that involved combining ingredients and mushing it all together with my hands.

Only after I'd finished, i realised I had a couple of little cuts on my thumb (I often get chapped hands after a cleaning spree).

So now I've convinced myself that I've caught toxoplasmosis from the minced beef!!
I'm worrying myself sick!
Does anyone know if it can be contracted through cuts??
I've googled like mad and can't find much info apart from when it's ingested...

Any advice??
Sorry if this seems abit jumbled... I've worried myself sick and my eyes are hurting from reading Dr Google for so long!
 
I'm in the U.K. If that makes any difference at all to my minced beef!
 
I don't think you have to worry about toxoplasmosis from that... https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/toxoplasmosis/basics/causes/con-20025859

probably just the usual intestinal stuff like e.coli or salmonella....
 
Im sure you are absolutely fine! Too many things to worry about during pregnancy lol
