All proprietary foods have a very high concentration of glucose. So they may alter your blood sugar level. Please get your blood sugar level , fasting and PP and consult your Gynaecologist with the report.

It's safe.
But as you are 2 months pregnant, you should also start Folic acid tablets. It prevents neural tube defects in baby.
