I'm about 8 weeks pregnant, and my doctor has given me a prescription for Fertigyn 5000IU. Im kinda worried because I read somewhere that it's not usually prescribed when youre pregnant. Is it really safe to use this?

I'm about 10 weeks pregnant, and earlier today I drank lemon juice with some soaked sabja, basil seeds. Later, I found out that maybe it's not safe to have sabja while pregnant. Is it true? Should I be worried about having it just this once?
