Listeria In Pregnancy Symptoms
and Treatment
Listeriosis is a rare but serious infection caused by the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria can cause serious problems in pregnant women and their newborns. Listeriosis is also a serious infection for adults with weakened immune systems.
Pregnant women are about 10 times more likely than other people to get listeriosis. About 1 in 5 pregnant women who get listeriosis die. Infection during pregnancy can cause miscarriage, premature delivery, or stillbirth. Infection early in pregnancy may also cause a serious infection in the newborn called sepsis.
Be sure to talk to your health care professional about any infections you have during pregnancy.
What are the symptoms of listeriosis?
The symptoms of listeriosis can include fever, chills, muscle aches, nausea, and vomiting. In pregnant women, the symptoms may be mild, or they may not occur at all. However, even pregnant women who do not have any symptoms can still pass the infection to their baby.
How is listeriosis treated?
Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics.
What can I do to prevent listeriosis?
You can reduce your risk of listeriosis by following these food safety tips:
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after you handle food.
Wash fruits and vegetables well before eating.
Do not eat raw or unpasteurized milk or cheese.
Do not eat raw or undercooked meat, poultry, or fish.
Cook food to the correct temperature. Use a food thermometer to make sure meat, poultry, and fish are cooked to a safe temperature.
Refrigerate food promptly.
If you are pregnant, avoid contact with animals and their environments (e.g., petting zoos and farms).
If you are pregnant, avoid eating soft cheeses such as feta, Brie, and Camembert, unless they are made with pasteurized milk.
If you are pregnant, avoid eating hot dogs, luncheon meats, and other deli meats, unless they are reheated until steaming hot.
No Symptoms Of Pregnancy At 12 Weeks
Around 12 weeks into a pregnancy, most women begin to experience a number of symptoms. These can include things like morning sickness, fatigue, and mood swings. However, for some women, these symptoms never appear. This is completely normal, and there is no need to worry.
There are a few things that can cause a lack of symptoms at this stage in a pregnancy. One possibility is that the pregnancy is not viable. This means that the embryo has not been able to implant properly in the uterus, and will not be able to develop. In this case, there will be no symptoms, and a woman will eventually miscarry.
Another possibility is that the woman is carrying twins or multiples. With more than one baby in the womb, the symptoms can be spread out, and some women may not experience any at all.
Finally, it is possible that the woman is just not experiencing any symptoms yet. This is normal, and does not mean that there is anything wrong with the pregnancy. Many women do not start to experience symptoms until later on, around the 20-week mark.
If a woman is concerned about her lack of symptoms, she should speak to her doctor. They will be able to perform a number of tests to check the viability of the pregnancy. If it is determined that the pregnancy is not viable, the woman can begin to prepare for a miscarriage. If the pregnancy is viable, the doctor can help to ensure that the woman is healthy and has a smooth pregnancy.
Do Guys Get Pregnancy Symptoms
?
There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as everyone experiences pregnancy differently. However, there are some general symptoms that both men and women can experience during pregnancy.
For men, some common symptoms may include fatigue, morning sickness, and changes in appetite. Pregnant men may also experience swelling in their breasts and aching in their lower backs and abdomens. In addition, many men find that their sense of smell and taste are heightened during pregnancy.
For women, some common symptoms may include fatigue, morning sickness, and changes in appetite. Pregnant women may also experience swelling in their breasts, aching in their lower backs and abdomens, and mood swings. In addition, many women find that their sense of smell and taste are heightened during pregnancy.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to consult with your doctor to determine whether you are pregnant.
Father Pregnancy Symptoms
Although pregnancy symptoms can vary from woman to woman, there are some common symptoms fathers can experience in the weeks leading up to their partner’s pregnancy.
Some of the most common symptoms fathers may experience include fatigue, morning sickness, and changes in their sex drive. Additionally, fathers may also experience mood swings and changes in their eating habits.
Many fathers find that they experience an increase in their fatigue levels as their partner’s pregnancy progresses. This may be due to the additional physical and emotional demands of caring for a pregnant partner.
Many fathers also experience morning sickness, which can range from mild nausea to vomiting. This symptom can be caused by the increase in hormones that occur during pregnancy.
Changes in a father’s sex drive are also common. Fathers may find that they are less interested in sex as their partner’s pregnancy progresses. This change is due to the physical and emotional changes that fathers undergo as they prepare for the arrival of their child.
Mood swings and changes in eating habits are also common in fathers during pregnancy. Fathers may find that they are more emotional and more sensitive to their surroundings. Additionally, fathers may find that they are hungrier or have a different appetite than they did before.
While each father’s experience of pregnancy will be unique, many of the symptoms listed above are common. By understanding what to expect, fathers can be better prepared for the changes that occur during their partner’s pregnancy.
