[quote=Anonymous]You're fine. The main risk with undercooked handburger is generally e coli. Pink is usually fine to kill e coli. And you'd know pretty quickly if you had an e coli infection, I think. But, someone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure e coli does not cross the placental barrier, meaning that it won't infect the baby directly. Of course, it's not great to get it while your pregnant, but its not like listeria. Listeria is one of the few bacteria that crosses the placental barrier and can infect the fetus directly, which is why you generally get warnings about listeria. Listeria is more commonly found in cold lunch meats -- I suppose it can be found in raw beef, but I don't think it's common there.[/quote]
