Ryann KippingHey! Here is the one study done on cranberry during pregnancy:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3924191/
They found no association of harmful effects other than potentially increased vaginal bleeding after week 17 of pregnancy. My thoughts are to stick with cranberry juice versus supplements, but even in the case of supplements, it doesn’t appear as if it would do any harm to baby! The bonus to supplements is that you don’t get the sugar as you do with juice, but the amount of cranberry you are ingesting is more potent. Bottom line: maybe a low dose supplement or be cognizant of sugar consumption from juice!
