Listeria illness is rare. Every year, 4 in 100,000 pregnant people in the U.S. get sick with Listeria.

But it can harm your baby. Sadly, 1 in 4 pregnant people who get this illness lose their pregnancy or their baby shortly after birth. That’s because the germ can spread to your baby and harm them while you are pregnant, even if you don’t feel very sick.
