I got a pack of beef mince out of the freezer yesterday morning, left it in the fridge. Then decided I didn't feel like it last night, so chucked it back in the freezer.

It hadn't de-frosted, and was still rock hard, so I'm guessing it was alright to be put back in the freezer? Am I right in thinking that red meat is ok to re-freeze?

Just googled it, and it is ok to do so.

Don't want to be throwing away good money!

if it didn't defronst then it is OK. Once meat has defrosted you should only re-freeze if you change the composition of it, i.e. cook it. Then you can re-freeze.
Also once de-frosted you can keep in fridge for a couple of days with no troubles.

BUT, after saying that, because you are pregnant, you need to be so much more careful than you normally would
