Not certain: Probiotics are generally very safe, but one must realize that they are live organisms, and side effects, although rare, have occurred, including rare instances of bacteria in the bloodstream. The decision to take them should be between you and your obstetrician, taking into account the rare side effects vs. whatever positive effects you believe they may have. Good luck with your pregnancy!
