It is very okay. I've checked with my Dr. on this. My last pregnancy and my current pregnancy I craved nothing but hot peppers and hot spicy food.
Peppers actually contain a ton of vitamins so they're good for you.
You might expect heartburn, and possibly some diahhrea, but if you're cravin them and you can tolerate the "side effects", eat up!
Best wishes!

Eating Pepper During Pregnancy

If you LOVE spicy & hot then the baby will think it's OK. I tried hot peppers when I was about 2 or 3 and I loved 'em. My mom loves spice too. It's all just basic genetics. My parents told me that story!!

You may get heartburn or indigestion. Unfortunately, it won't make you go into labor.
I at tons of spicy food (including hot peppers when I was pregnant) and my baby didn't mind.

If you won't get heartburn from them then eat away. They for no reason will hurt your baby. I was never able to have hot, spicy anything while pregnant because of the heartburn.

If you are already accustomed to them (like a Texan), I don't see why it would be a problem. If you have heartburn, they will make it worse. If you don't have heartburn, you may very well get it. Large amounts of capsicum haven't been tested.
