Yes: Use tea tree oil during pregnancy to safely treat foot fungus. Apply a thin layer of oil twice a day for 4-6 weeks.

Nothing: Use topical creams on toe or wait until after the baby.

I would not : Take anything. Enjoy your pregnancy. Deal with your toe fungus afterwards.

Depends...: There are safe ways to treat fungal nails while pregnant, just not with oral antifungals. There are laser treatments as well as topical medications. See a podiatrist for details.
