    I had fetta when i was pregnant after the first trimester and i didnt worry too much about it,but then after you have the first pregnancy i think you tend to worry less lol
    Maybe one of the other girls will be able to help you more!

    I had feta a few times, and you're cooking it yes? so I think it should be ok

    Just make sure it is pasteurised and not the variety they keep in the deli section in the open and have put multiple staff accessing it or kept in liquid.

    I agree - as long as it's the sealed one that you buy in the cheese section of the supermarket it should be fine. It's a hard cheese and I think it's really only the soft ones you have to watch out for.

    I avoided feta and all other soft cheeses when p/g (I love it though) As long as it is cooked though it's fine (same goes for ricotta)

    As long as it's pasturised, it's fine whether cooked or not.

    I ate all cheeses throughout preg (brie, fetta etc) as long as they were pasturised, which all aussie cheeses are. You just avoid buying things from the deli section xo
