Safe to use: There are no scientific, peer reviewed articles linking propylene glycol in deodorants to any negative outcome in pregnancy. There are many organic and holistic sites on the internet touting that Propylene glycol is unsafe during pregnancy, but this is derived from studies showing that ingestion of propylene glycol in pregnancy causes. Topical use has minimal absorption.
