Why should I avoid empty the bowl and cat litter during pregnancy?May bring the stools (faeces) cat creature parasite causes toxoplasmosis, an infection is not dangerous for you, but it may be dangerous to your growing baby. Eating raw or processed meat or undercooked most common source of this disease, but a cat's stool is also a potential danger.

Fortunately, it can prevent the infection by following some simple steps.
What are the symptoms of toxoplasmosis?Usually, the symptoms are relatively mild in adults and may include swollen lymph nodes in the neck, headache, muscle pain, fatigue, and general symptoms similar to flu symptoms. And usually appear within one to three weeks after your exposure to infection. However, it may not show symptoms at all in some adults.
Vary the transmission of toxoplasmosis to your child according to the stage of pregnancy you are in when Tltkotain infection. And also vary the degree of seriousness of its impact, according to the stage of your pregnancy.
If you get toxoplasmosis disease in the late stage of pregnancy, it is likely that your child will develop it too, but is unlikely to suffer harm.
If you get toxoplasmosis disease at an early stage of pregnancy, it is unlikely that your child gets it, but most likely it will suffer from damage due to infection.
Infection can lead to infection with the disease including the following:• Loss of fetus or born dead• a child's disease hydrocephalus (water on the brain) or brain damage• Child injury or damage in the eyes of other members.
Damage does not show a clear majority of children who are born with a disease toxoplasmosis at birth, but develop symptoms in eight out of 10 cases. And usually these injuries is an infection or inflammation of the eye, or hearing problems, or difficulties in learning, and appear in a few months or years later.
Problems arise or significantly damage at birth and one out of every 10 children born with the disease toxoplasmosis. It is these children are more susceptible to serious problems such as deafness, blindness, and brain injury. It's sad that some children are born dead or survive for a few days after birth.
I'm still worried. What can I do to make sure I am not infected with toxoplasmosis?If you're worried that you might have been infected, you can ask your doctor that you are a blood test to see if you have immunity against this disease.
If you do not have any antibodies to toxoplasmosis, you are not immune to this disease. If found to have antibodies in the blood, it may be because exposure to a previous injury, which means that you have immunity against infection or disease due to injury currently, which will need further treatment.
If the result of a blood test is negative, and showed that there are no antibodies, you may want to repeat this test every month or every six weeks until the date of the birth of your baby. If the test proved that the result is positive during your pregnancy, it means that you have been exposed to infection. You will need to take the antibiotic as Spiramaysan for several months. This greatly reduces the likelihood of your child's exposure to infection.
Is also possible to conduct tests to see if the fetus was infected or not, although these tests do not show the severity of the damage. The test is performed by taking a sample of blood from your baby's umbilical cord or a sample of amniotic fluid (amniotic fluid). However, does not consider the results of these tests are quite accurate, and the sampling procedure carries the risk of Expose you to abortion.
Can also be an examination of the children after birth. If your child has any signs of infection, you will be treated using antibiotics. Your doctor should help you to decide whether you should test your child during pregnancy or not, and by balancing the risks of transmission in return may affect your child's exposure to damage by the disease. Will vary according to stage of pregnancy where I was infected.
