Dear user, Toxoplasmosis is acquired through contact with infected cat feces, by eating raw or undercooked meat, and by eating soil contaminated fruit or vegetables. There is no association with cat ownership. Adults most commonly acquire toxoplasmosis by environmental exposure, that is, ingestion of infectious oocysts usually from soil contamination with cat feces. The greatest risk for the baby is vertical transmission in the first trimester. Thirty percent of exposed fetuses acquire the infection; however 85% of live infants appear normal at birth. To avoid your fear about your baby I will recommend you to do TORCH test (it s free for pregnant women), a screening test that includes toxoplasmosis and some other infections which are harmful for the baby. Hope I was clear and you re satisfied with my recommendation. Wish you & the baby good health!
