Goat cheese is classified as a soft cheese. It is not advised to consume soft cheeses during pregnancy as they might be contaminated with Listeria bacteria which may cause food poisoning leading to miscarriage or stillbirth. It is rare but possible. Hard cheeses such as parmesan and cheddar are okay though. http://www.healthxchange.com.sg/healthyliving/womenhealth/Pages/Foods-to-Avoid-During-Pregnancy-Page-1.aspx
