I just used hamburger that has thawed in the fridge for a month… I cooked it in spaghetti… I didn’t realize hamburger didn’t last that long (I don’t normally cook) and now it’s been an hour and I’m not feeling well. I am pregnant as well… should I be worried?

You would have surely been cooking meat that had a terrible odor even when cooking it and surely it couldn’t have still been red…I don’t even understand, especially with the pregnancy nose,smells effected me my entire pregnancy.

Yes you can’t eat meat that has been in the fridge for that long I would go to the hospital especially being pregnant

Yeah, I’d go to the doctor/Urgent Care/ER before things progress. If you were an average Joe, I’d say ride it out for the night but you’re not, you’re pregnant. Depending how for along you are, it could create complications.
Oh my! Please please don’t make your own baby food! In the meantime get Healthcare then take a food handling course.

Girl, use meat within 2 days, I do anyways. It takes a day to thaw and I’d say one day after it’s ok but then it needs used. Never eat meat that’s just been sitting in the frdge for longer than a few days, never

Don’t ever think about cooking again. Meat can barely stand 3 days in the fridge but a month?? You didn’t see it molding? That green stuff on it was not parsley 
go to the emergency room but don’t say it’s been a month in the fridge. Just say a week at most.

I’d see a doctor, a month old meat would be bad at the best of times, don’t take risks waiting when pregnant.
Oh honey… I’m so sorry but it’s probably gonna be a rough night. Call the on call

Honestly how did the smell not get to you ? I’ve smelt hamburger that been in the fridge too long and that sour smell would get to you and even when you cooked it the smell is off too !! I’m calling cap on this one ! But if it’s true go to the doctors You most likely ate contaminated rotten food

Wouldn’t it have been gray after a month? I think that would have been a clue not to eat it.
If you didn’t suspect it being rancid by the color, you definitely would have smelled it. Not sure why you’d cook it after the color and smell. Whether you normally cook or not, being pregnant the smell alone would’ve been potent and not sure how you were able to stand there and cook it. Being that you have access to the internet, if you cook in the future, you can ask the questions in Google before you cook or eat anything you’re uncertain of.

How did you get past the smell of it cooking? I’m sorry but you need to go to the ER ASAP, meat can grow bacteria fast.

Seek medical help…you will probably get food poisoning,diarrhea and throwing up…it would be best to see a dr or go to the ER. I’ve had food poisoning before (accidental) and it was awful. Hope you feel better soon.
You don’t know the answer to this question and you are pregnant? Lord help you.

Some people are just plain rude, like really? must we shame people because they didn’t know. If you ain’t got nothing nice to say then don’t say it.
Anyways. Yes there is a possibility you can get food poisoning from being in the fridge that long, even with cooked meat after a week throw it out, the reasoning being bacteria starts growing on it. If you start feeling unwell go to the ER and get some zofan nausea medicine, that is safe to take while pregnant.
You’d think you smell it and notice that the color is bad…and you’re about to be responsible for a kid? Thats really scary

Call your doctor. Omg 
Go ask your Doctor. Do it soon. If you get sick the fetus won’t tolerate too well How old are you ? People usually know these things. I won’t eat anything that defrosted or just in the fridge if it’s more than two days old. Smells or is discolored

You’re probably going to get a bit of diarrhea.
Well it depends. Did you put it in the fridge frozen solid and it’s been sitting in there for a month? If yes, was it in the back of your fridge or the front, middle? Also what shelf. All these things come into play. So if it was frozen solid and you had put it in the back of your fridge on the top shelf then yea I could honestly say it should be fine. Now if it was thawed on the counter then you put it in the fridge then yea I’d Def go see a doctor.

You will be in for a bad time
Both on the loo and with a bucket between your knees
Sadly all you can do is drink plenty of water , parocearomal
And let it pass (No pun intended)
If you get to the point you can’t keep water down
I suggest you go to the ed for an iv fluid drip
Especially as your pregnant
Sadly there isn’t anything that can be done medically for food poisoning
You having a baby and don’t know that month old hamburger meat ain’t good? Oh boy.

Well geez don’t understand how you could not notice the smell or off-putting color. Go to the ER, clean out your entire fridge when you get home, Google how long meats or any other items lasts in your fridge and learn how to properly cook.
Food poisoning is the ABSOLUTE worst thing I’ve ever been through. You’re gonna be really sick, get to the hospital while you can bc I promise you once it starts you ain’t gonna make it there without diapers, a driver, and a bucket to puke in
Surely this is a scam? It would have smelt terrible after a month, no way you could open it and not tell it was off.

I’d be contacting the nearest emergency room- you’re pregnant and food poisoning will most certainly dehydrate you, not a good thing while pregnant .

Didn’t it smell to you lol
I’d think it would’ve smelt and looked awful but I thought once a meat is thawed you have 24 hours to cook it before it needs chucking 
I would make sure you get plenty of fluids in you and call your midwife or preg unit to check as food poisoning in pregnancy can be dangerous
How did you not notice the awful taste, smell and Color? Even fresh meat doesn’t stay good for a month in the fridge?
Why would you have cooked the meat that was in the refrigerator for over a month?! And on top of being pregnant. While cooking it had to have a distinct smell to it!
So you’re telling me there was no odor to the meat? Surely there should have been an odor to the meat not only that but it wouldn’t have been pink anymore. The color and odor should of given it away

Meat is never good after a few days… I give meat 2 days tops.
How could you not know?! Meat smells and turns bad really quick.
I’d do one of two things.
If your doctor has an after hours line, call it and ask them what they want you to do.
If they do not, I would go ahead and go to the hospital if you’re not feeling well. They can test you for the bacteria to see what type of food poisoning you have.
There is zero chance you cooked, and ate, month old meat without realizing it was bad. 
I’m sorry people are being so ignorant.
I personally would go to the ER if you’re pregnant , make sure you don’t have a food borne illness
Go to your Dr right away!!!
If dumb and pregnant was a person:rofl:

Eeewwww why?! It would smell so bad immediately how could u miss that?
Yeah you’re going to definitely get sick
There’s no way it didn’t smell lol
You should go to the Dr. and get your nose checked. The meat was either still good or you are nose blind.
Yeah, you just gave yourself food poisoning…
You’ll probably be in the hospital. That had to stink and be ruined.
Hamburger goes bad a 1 week after being thawed in the fridge. Sounds like you have food poisoning. Go to the Er/ Urgent Care get yourself taken care of.
Didn’t the smell or the discoloration tell you it wasn’t a good idea?? Because after a week of hamburger in the fridge it turns brown…
This can’t be real! A month? It would’ve smelled like roadkill!
