I didn't tell my Dr. I take my pregvita and folic acid pills daily. So I didn't think it's a big deal.

Craving ice chips can sometimes be a sign of anemia. Have you let your doctor know?

I eat ice like it's going out of style have thru all 3 of my pregnancys. They even give u ice chips in the hospital. It actually helps the baby move but won't hurt the baby.

The amniotic sac and fluid help regulate temperature if that helps go more in depth on safety.

It wont affect the baby except make the baby cold. It's just water so it's no issue at all.
