Help! Raw Eggs

OOPS! I'm so mad at myslef.  A few minutes ago I was baking brownies and without really thinking took a few licks of the batter (raw eggs, of course).  After that I got to thinking about it and looked it up online and got scared!!  I'm just worried I got salmanilla or hurt my baby.  Any advice or has anyone done something similiar?  I'm a little past 14 weeks along.

you're good....i always buy the prepackaged cookie dough, the kind that comes in squares???

i buy 2, 1 to bake, and 1 to eat on every few days!!!  well, i've only done it twice, but still....thats a dozen raw cookies in 2 weeks lol.....

pluuus, i LOVE eggs over easy, and my dr hasn't mentioned anything about it, b/c from what i understand, the yoke isn't fully cooked....and when he asked about b'fast, and i said a country b'fast with over easy eggs, he laughed.....so i'm assuming i'm good!

I did that too several times with cookie dough and brownie mix....you'll be OK :) It's so automatic that you don't realize you're doing it!

You'll be fine!

I wouldn't worry about it. If your eggs are unpasteurized then you might be allowed some worry. But eggs sold in your local grocery store are pasteurized.

Don't worry about it. These days it's rare for anyone to get salmonella poisoning from just eggs... it happens, Just not very often since most eggs are pasturized.

The other day I was eating raw cookie dough! :).
