Help ASAP; someone please put my mind at ease . My kitten that we just got I'm like 99% has worms . He's put away from me now but he's been by my side for days now . Is this super dangerous to me and baby ?

only if you are cleaning up the poop, which you should never clean a cats litter box while pregnant anyway.

it's super possible that you could contract worms from any animal that has them, some types of worms are more likely to spread than others. idk what the effects on a baby would be but with a cat they get on all kinds of surfaces so they are more likely to drop eggs or worms all over the place. definitely get that taken care of. good luck and sorry to hear that your kitty is going through that.

So should I call my doctor or l&d to get checked then? I really don't want to have anything happen to my baby I'm finally in third trimester I made it so far for something to go wrong @maybaby2016

no , don't panic yourself just make sure to wash your hands before you eat anything. I know some worms (hook worms I believe) can get into your body through your bare feet but I think that's only by contaminated fecal matter. definitely deworm your kitty asap just because it's better for him and more sanitary for you and your baby.
