I'm pregnant and just ate some gorgonzola cheese

I'm pregnant and just ate some gorgonzola cheese on my salad at a restaurant. Forgettting that I wasn't supposed to eat that, I called the restaurant later and they said that the cheese was imported (which I know isn't good) but that it was pasturized. Should I worry or take any precautions from here?

If the label on that cheese states pasteurized, then you are fine. I would still let your doctor know that this did occur though.

In the mean time, if you do develop any flu type symptoms, let your doctor know, as he/she can start you on antibiotics. But still let your doctor know.

Congrats on the new baby too. Hope this helps, If you need anything else please feel free to ask. If you found this helpful don’t forget to click the *ACCEPT* button and leave *POSITIVE* feedback.
