Topicals: There are a number of topical products that should be safe during pregnancy. Just be patient. Toenails take 9 months to grow and will take at least that long to completely clear.

Fungal nails: While you are pregnant, you must be careful of taking any oral medications. You can soak your feet for 20 minutes in warm water and add four tablespoons of white vinegar in the warm water. You can ask your podiatrist for a cold laser treatment to help clear your nails safely.
