Everything in moderation is key. Over use, ie.; LARGE doses of lavender taken internally, have been linked to miscarriage from a few sources in early pregnancy. A cup or two of lavender tea a day (made from the flowers not the essential oil) after the danger of miscarriage passes and an essential oil mixture on your skin, face or tummy should not be a problem according to everything I have read and quite the opposite.
Lavender is one of the mildest yet powerful healing herbs there is. It is so mild, it is one of the few recommended for children and even infants. Lavender is great for our pets as well. Cats are so sensitive an aspirin can kill them, yet they can even be helped greatly with lavender. It's a great natural pain reliever.
This is strictly my opinion. I don't claim to treat anyone or cure them of anything. Like with everything you will want to first consult with your physician.
Many blessings during your pregnancy!
Wings of Light,

It is generally safe to use lavender oil on dogs, but it is important to dilute it properly and use it in moderation. Some dogs may have sensitivities or allergies to lavender oil, so it is best to consult with a veterinarian before using it on your pet.

Lavandin, is a hybrid plant relatively new in use. It comes from crossing true lavender with spike lavender. Its uses in aromatherapy are similar to those of true lavender. Lavender, is an anciently know and used plant, one of the best general all around essential oils and one of the few that can be used "neat". Spike Lavender, is another essential oil with similar properties as true lavender. As Lavender essential oil is so multipurpose, easy to use, with few contraindications, it is in high demand. On occasion it becomes short in supply and the prices of good essential lavender oils can become very high. Spike Lavender and now Lavandin are less expensive and yet have very similar uses to true lavender.
be careful use your own lavender and it is a herb so you can eat
To effectively use lavender to repel moths from your home, you can place dried lavender sachets in your closets, drawers, and other areas where moths may be present. The strong scent of lavender is known to deter moths and keep them away from your belongings. Additionally, you can also use lavender essential oil diluted in water to create a natural moth repellent spray for your home. Simply spray this mixture in areas where moths are likely to be present to help keep them away.

Lavender thrives in warm, well drained soil and full sun. You can keep it moist, but not damp. When the lavender blooms, you can cut it at the bottom and dry for later use. Lavender will come back every year.
