Ate 12 Turkey Sandwiches and now im scared

Hi all,

Im 10 weeks pregnant and just learned I  can't eat turkey from the deli. I thought just ham, salami, bologna were off limits. I've had about a dozen turkey sandwiches in my pregnancy and am freaking out now. Any advice?

It's not salmonella that's the problem it listeria which can (not saying will) cause miscarriages in pregnant woman (many pregnant eat or with out problems just fine). This is why the recommend heating it till streaming hot.

You're fine.. You would notice if it had salmonella.. I eat deli meats all the time because cooked meats are making me really sick..
