I believe female pilots are actually grounded for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and I know that quite a few Cabin Attendants have had miscarriages in the first 12 weeks. Although it is a very physical job so that might contribute to the problem. So I think the baby is probably more vulnerable in the early stages.
I would definitely seek medical advice
