ppd while pregnant?

For my job I am required to get an annual ppd, I am supposed to get in this week, does anyone know if it's safe to get while pregnant? Has anyone gotten one while pregnant?

Hmm.. not sure I'm certain all the disclaimers will be mentioned to you before they ask you to take it. I highly doubt employers will force their pregnant employees to do something that is harmful to the fetus.
