Anyone know if MSG is safe during
pregnancy? I cant find much literature on
it!

I think like everything, moderation is the
key. Certainly, you don't want to go out
of your way downing a lot of it. Beware
that MSG contains a lot of sodium, and if
you have problems with swelling or water
retention, it will likely make it worse,
but I have Chinese food now and again
though usually I end up 3 lb. heavier the
next day due to water retention, but it
goes away within a day or two.
