Spirulina and chlorella

I have been taking both spirulina and chlorella for about six months and now am 9wks pregnant. my question is, is it still generally safe for me to continue taking these supplements. I am a vegetarian and my immune system is sometimes on the lower end of normal. I can find nothing in reference to any risks or benefits and my gyn has no opinion because they are not fda approved and she also feels the prenatal is sufficient enough. any help?
