You should be ok - most Brie sold here is made with pasteurized milk.

oh even better   thanks

Check the label, I eat brie all the time because it says pasteurized on it. Other soft cheeses too. That's the reason to avoid them if they weren't pasteurized. I always double check even though pretty much all soft cheese is made with pasteurized milk. I love brie too much to stop eating it but if it weren't safe I'd let it go.

i'd check but the stuff i was eating earlier i took from my parents house just in a tupperware  

It's probably fine honestly. I have a girlfriend who spent most of her first pregnancy in Europe with the army and women over there eat stuff we're told not to all the time and they have healthy babies too. They drink wine also. Not that I'm saying you should drink. Just a thought.

I get the President brand at Safeway usually. Not the high end expensive stuff. I eat it as often as I can afford to buy myself a little treat. Cheese in all forms has been my absolute hugest craving during both these past 2 pregnancies.

Brie that's sold at like Walmart and stuff is pasteurized, so you can still eat it. Just make sure it says "pasteurized" on the container. Unpasteurized cheeses are what you have to worry about.
