Is it safe to do acupuncture while pregnant in first trimester?

I have been going for acupuncture for past 5 weeks, not knowing I was pregnant. Now that I know, I’m wondering if it’s safe for me to continue acupuncture. I was doing acupuncture to treat my carpal tunnel. But my carpal tunnel has improved tremendously so I don’t mind stopping. Just need to know the safety around doing acupuncture when pregnant in first trimester.

Hi. Acupuncture is considered generally safe during pregnancy when conducted by an experienced licensed practitioner. But tell the practitioner that you are pregnant. As a general rule, tell him/her if you experience discomfort. The use of single use needles is essential, so check that!
