What Are The Side Effects Of Using ROC Deep Wrinkle Night Cream During Pregnancy?

I have been using ROC deep wrinkle night cream and am currently 27-28 weeks pregnant. I was just told today that I should not be using any retinol products during pregnancy. This was not on my list off things to stay away from - by my Ob. Is this dangerous to my baby?
