I am now 26 weeks and was eating it early on in pregnancy also, because I had no idea! Once I learned I shouldn't have it I stopped.  Baby and I are both doing fine. :)

We are suppose to avoid unpasteurized cheese due to the risk of bacteria. I'm sure your baby will be fine.

Forgot to mention I'm exactly 31 weeks today. You know I heard that about tuna fish too? Cause of the mercury in it. But nobody informed me of that with my 1st pregnancy. And I was craving it something fierce! So I ate it several times a week for a couple months. My baby came out healthy & 8 pounds. Did your doctor tell you that about the feta? If not, I'll make a note to ask my doctor next visit!

Really?! I've eaten feta cheese on my salads at least a handful of times. Where did you hear that from? Cause I didn't know that either. I love that stuff on s spinach salad with honey mustard. MmmMm My baby is fine. 100% healthy! But I might not be eating anymore of it now. o_O
