Is there any impact on eating yogurt from the refrigerator during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

At 26 weeks pregnant, my husband moved the yogurt from the fridge to the bedside. Is this yogurt contaminated with harmful bacteria like listeria? Does it pose a threat to the baby? The fridge also contains a lot of meat, fruits, and other items.

Doctor's answer:

The situation you mentioned will never happen again. Regarding yogurt, first, the lid must be tightly sealed, making it impossible for any bacteria to enter. Additionally, it can be stored at room temperature. There's no need to worry about this; you can slightly warm it before drinking and avoid drinking it cold. Normally, it can be stored at room temperature or refrigerated in the fridge. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
