No evidence: While currently there is no scientific evidence supporting that mold exposure during pregnancy can cause miscarriage or stillbirth it doesn't mean it's safe to expose yourself. Bottom line: A pregnant woman should avoid mold, especially inhaling large quantities of mold, when possible.

Not a risk: Molds grow in damp places, can cause symptoms: nose, throat, and chest. Some make a poison (mycotoxin), most don’t. Air exposure not severe except for people with allergies, asthma, lung diseases, and immune deficiency. Don’t swallow molds. Clean up carefully.
