Intake of lemongrass in concentrated forms such as lemongrass tea or supplements can lead to severe complications during pregnancy. Lemongrass can be consumed in small amounts, such as in Thai dishes, where it is used as a seasoning, but it is best avoided altogether.

Hey mama, Should be okay. Pregnant mamas love the smell of lemongrass and so far, I haven’t experienced complications with anyone, even myself :)
