Oh, you're fine. The date on dairy products is usually the "sell by" date, not the "eat by" date. As long as it's been in the fridge...and it didn't look/smell spoiled, you'll be fine. Props to you for eating well!

The yogurt doesn't know how to read, my friend. And it's inside the package, so it can't see when it's supposed to expire. :) The date doesn't mean that it'll turn poisonous on that date. Think of it more like a suggestion to retailers that they should sell this product by that date. You're going to be okay. There's no little party of germs inside the package celebrating that this is the day they get to take over. :)

If it didn't taste bad, you should be fine. It might give you the runs a little bit, but you won't die and it shouldn't harm your baby. The expiration date on most foods is a guideline, not a surety. Now, if had been sitting open in the fridge past the expiration date, that might pose a danger.
Yougurt is surprizingly resistant to a lot of the negative bacterias.

No. Once I ate moldy bread by accident and nothing happened to me. But it is possible you could vomit and get a little sick but not die. Just hope that you have a strong stomach. If it is only lumpy and a little smelly you're on the safe side. But trust me never ever ever eat yogurt with green patches on the top.

You should be fine. Unopened food is supposed to be edible for a certain amount of time after the expiry date. And yogurt is live cultures anyway. Maybe they're just... a little more live than usual?!
If you don't feel sick by now, you'll probably be fine. Good luck!

Shouldn't be a problem, yogurt is already half spoiled as it is that's why it's good to eat, helps the digestive process. Just make sure you don't drink out of the milk carton without looking lol would really make you hurl if it was chunky.

You are very safe. There are no recorded cases of food poisoning from dairy products.
Good luck.
