Is it safe to take vitamin c while pregnant?

Yes: In recommended standard doses, yes. You probably already have enough in your prenatal vitamin. Taking "more" vitamins and minerals in the form of supplements does not improve health.

Yes: Vitamin c is very safe in pregnancy. 500 mg once or twice a day is a good dose.
