Default newbie with a kitty question..;)

Hello, I'm Christine from Pa. I have a cat
( Lucy ) and I'm also 6 monhts pregnant, I've heard the danger in
cleaning litter boxes and pregnancy...does anyone know anthing about
this?

She has never been outside, BUT she has been around my moms cats who ARE
in and outdoor cats....
But Lucy never even caught a mouse...

My main question is this: they say handleing raw meat is REALLY bad
during pregnancy too....BUT with common sense you wash your hands.....
is that the same deal with cats...like if you change the litter box then
wash you hands its ok?
because i've scooped the box 2 or 3 times WITH gloves on then washed my
hands with antibacterial soap...do you think that is ok?
My husband is doing it ow to avoid any problems....

I am an animal lover...I have a pet grooming shop and groom pets for a
living ....;-)))
so getting rid of my cat is OUT of the question...but i know a NON
animal lover will make it seem WAY worse that it really is....

any in-put?

Thanks in advance......

Chrstine....( all snowed in..)
