If I couldn't eat cheese during pregnancy, I probably would have cried every day! Yes, mozzarella is safe, just make sure it's not raw/unpasteurized. Now go eat some pizza before the baby arrives and you have no time to eat at all!
Since I had a loss before, I was extremely cautious about everything. I only ate mozzarella cheese after making sure the packet clearly said 'pasteurized' and heating it until bubbling hot. If you have any doubts, just ask your doctor once.
I completely get why you are worried, even I used to double check every single food item during my pregnancy! Actually, mozzarella is perfectly safe as long as it is made from pasteurized milk. Just check the packet label to be sure and enjoy your pizza!
Humare yahan toh log dahi aur paneer khane ko kehte hain, par aajkal ki ladkiyan cheese bhi bohot khati hain. Bas dhyan rakhna ki achhi quality ka ho aur paka hua ho. Khush raho aur achha khao beta.
Beta, eating out too much cheese is not good for digestion during this time. But if you want to eat mozzarella, make sure it is heated properly on a hot pizza or toast. Paneer is much better and easier on the stomach, though.
I ate so much cheesy garlic bread and pizza during my second trimester! Mozzarella is fine as long as it's pasteurized, which almost all store-bought ones in India are. Keep active and enjoy your cravings!
Currently in my 3rd trimester and honestly, mozzarella cheese on toasted bread is the only thing keeping me happy right now! Since it's pasteurized, it is totally fine. Just go for it, we deserve some treats!
Oh god, I panicked once after eating a whole cheesy panini because I read about listeria online! But my doctor laughed and said pasteurized mozzarella is 100% safe. Just relax and eat, no need to stress.
When I was pregnant, I felt so guilty even thinking of eating cheese because everyone had different opinions. But when I asked my gynac, she said mozzarella is great for calcium. It felt so liberating to just enjoy my food without guilt.
