quick question about food in pregnancy

[megan210792]

im 18 weeks and its my birthday on thursday and my partner is taking me for a meal but im a fussy eater and the only meat i really like is steak and i like it still a little pink in the middle. but i wasnt sure if i can eat it like that while pregnant or do i have to have it cooked fully through

I only could eat meat that's fully cooked because if I see any pink what so ever I freak and won't eat it haha

I have never listen to my doctor when it came to eating meat that was only fully cooked, if so our ancestors would have never had children.  I only like my steaks med. rare, and therefor thats the only way I have been eating them. I have had no problems what so ever because of this.  I say follow your gut instinct before anyone judgement on this.  But this is only my opinion.
