Tap Water Safety During Pregnancy

How do I know if my tap water is safe for me to drink while I'm pregnant?

Even if your water looks and tastes clean and clear, you may want to have it tested to be 100 percent sure it's safe. Why? Some studies have linked drinking water that's high in certain chlorine byproducts with an increased risk of miscarriage and poor fetal growth.(While you're at it, you can check for pesticides, lead or other toxins.) Of course, you can always switch to bottled water once you start trying to conceive.
