liquorice bad for baby?

My sister in law recently came back from holiday ,she brought me 2 big bags of liquorice and I've been constantly eating them for the past 2 days. I randomly searched online if they were OK during pregnancy and it said it could mess with brain devolpment. I'm stressing out so much now. Is baby OK :(

I believe it is the licorice root that is the thing. that causes concerns yours is most likely artificially flavored.  Check the ingredients hun
