Unsure: I looked up the product to see if there is a complete list of incredients to review and I can't find a complete list. There may or may not be something in there that could be an issue. Don't forget preconceptual prenatal vitamin with a good dose of folate (folic acid) and maybe DHA is of great value to your pregnancy.

Stop it: I would avoid any supplement of that nature while pregnant. Several have been found to contain unreported ingredients and only about 2/3s actually contain what the label states. Not worth the risk.
