Lightbulb Cod live oil is okay
as long as you don't increase doses (thinking to get more EFAs that way)

If you plan on becoming pregnant, the vit A content in some cod liver oils,
should be considered. Especially if you take other vitamins containing A.

High dose A (retinol) is not recommended during pregnancy.

Since toxins are concentrated in the liver of the fish (more than the body),
make sure you buy a quality brand that guarantees no contamination (that they test for toxins).

Used properly cod liver oil is safe.
