Can someone help me find out if Cymbalta is safe during pregnancy?

[cjp]

I see my OB on May 4th. The Cymbalta has been helping me the last few months. I tried to find the category of whether it's safe at any point in pregnancy on the internet, but couldn't. I'm taking 30mg. Thank you so much for your input!
