Meat from livestock that were given antibiotics for pregnant woman

The Antibiotics in Meat aren't dangerous, and none of the Antibiotics given to Livestock will harm a Fetus.
In addition, eating Meat, including Red meat, is very important for a well rounded diet and Pregnancy.
You need the Iron and other Nutirents from the Meat.
There is no research that shows eating Meat from animals treated with Antibiotics leads to resisitant Bacteria.
It is also important to know (and scientific documents exist) that children raised on farms and rural areas are typically healthier, have less food allergies and fewer cases of childhood Asthma than their Peers.
These chlidren and their parents (including expecting mothers) are typically large consumers of traditional Meat.

It's not safe to eat Precooked meats such as Deli meats, Hot dogs, and pâté when you're Pregnant unless they're heated until steaming hot. Pregnant women are about 20 times more likely than other healthy adults to get Listeriosis, and Newborns – not moms – suffer the most serious effects of infection during Pregnancy.
Listeria can cross the placental barrier or, more commonly, be transmitted in the birth Canal, and it can be devastating for the baby. Every year or so, an Outbreak occurs in which Miscarriage, Preterm delivery, or death occurs because Pregnant women ate Deli meat or Hot dogs contaminated with Listeria.
Contamination may result from improper handling, or the Bacteria may already be present in the meat. But whatever the reason, unlike other Bacteria, Listeria grows well at Refrigerator Temperatures. So while we think we're being safe by putting cold cuts in the Refrigerator, this germ outsmarts us.
You should avoid getting Fluid from packages of Hot dogs and other meats on other foods, Utensils, or food preparation areas, and be sure to wash your hands after handling Hot dogs or Deli meats. Listeria is also a problem in Unpasteurized milk, Soft cheeses, and Uncooked poultry. While you're Pregnant, you should stay away from cheese made from Unpasteurized milk.

If you make your own Juice from Fruit and make sure to wash the Fruit with Soap and Water and squeeze it yourself, there should be no problem.
If you haven't washed it well, there could be Chemicals and Insecticides on the Fruit.
I'd stay away from the Unpasteurized juice you find in Health food stores.
You don't know what processes it went through when it was made.
Chemicals or Bacteria could have gotten into the Juice and could make you and the Baby sick.

No.
Psoriasis is a reaction of the Immune System and not caused by a Virus or Bacteria, so it's not Contagious.
It doesn't even spread on your child's skin.

If the infection is very mild, your baby's doctor may recommend that you simply keep the area clean and let it clear up on its own. More likely, though, your baby will need Antibiotics to get rid of the infection. He must take the full course of medication to keep the infection from returning. Instead of Oral antibiotics, your baby's doctor may prescribe an Antibiotic skin cream to clear up the Rash.
Whether or not your baby receives Antibiotics, you'll need to keep the infected skin clean. Twice a day, gently wash away the scabs with warm water and an Antibacterial soap, and then pat the area dry. Use a clean towel each time, and don't let anyone else use it afterward — or use a paper towel and toss it.
If your doctor has prescribed a Topical ointment, apply it to the tender exposed skin. Your doctor may suggest loosely covering the infected skin with a Gauze bandage.
Keep your baby's Fingernails trimmed to prevent him from scratching the area, which can spread the infection to other parts of his body — or to other people.
Call the doctor if the treatment doesn't seem to be working after three days, your baby gets a fever, or the infected area becomes noticeably red and tender. If your baby keeps getting reinfected, talk to your doctor about how to identify and treat the source of the problem.
The doctor may need to do a tissue culture to determine which type of Bacteria your baby is dealing with. To do this, she'll take a sample of the infected area with a simple skin swab. When the culture comes back a day or two later, she can determine which antibiotic will be most effective.
