A very extensive study a few years ago looked at women very early in Pregnancy.
The study found no effects on the Fetus when moms drink up to three cups of Coffee a day; very few women drank more than that.
A more recent study found an increased risk of miscarriage when Pregnant women drank more than 200 mg of Caffeine per day.

What little evidence there is indicates that getting a Perm or chemically straightening your hair is no cause for concern.
The fumes might be annoying, but the Exposure probably isn't significant enough to have any effect on your baby.
Some hair-processing solutions may use Solvents, and while there is concern about the effects of Solvents on a developing baby, that's most likely an issue only for women who work around Solvents all day and develop symptoms from the Exposure.

I would say no. Although the chances of getting a Parasitic infection from eating Sushi are slim, the consequences are severe enough that you wouldn't want to take the risk.
Parasites live in the meat of raw fish. While Sushi chefs are very careful, that doesn't mean they detect every single Parasite. And because Pregnancy suppresses your immune system, you're much more susceptible to serious illness from any food-borne organism.
A Parasitic infection probably couldn't get through the placental barrier, but a Parasitic infection could give you liver or Gastrointestinal problems that might then affect your baby. Some Parasitic infections can lead to Anemia or serious Malnourishment in the mother or even cause miscarriage.
There's also the risk of eating fish that has a marine toxin in it. Bluefish, Mackerel, Mahi-mahi, and Tuna can carry a Histamine toxin that may cause flushing, dizziness, and burning of the mouth and throat.

It's safe, but whether it's desirable is up to you.
Your body will tell if you shouldn't do it.
Eating Spicy foods may be uncomfortable, especially in the last half to last third of Pregnancy, when your stomach is sitting somewhere near your throat and you're very Prone to Heartburn.
And some women develop Heartburn even earlier in Pregnancy.

Being Pregnant doesn't make it any riskier to eat raw Oysters.
Anytime you eat raw Shellfish there's a chance you could get something that's not good.
Oysters can carry Hepatitis. If you get Hepatitis when you're Pregnant, you'll probably get sicker than you would otherwise.
But acute Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C are usually not transmitted across the Placenta to the baby.
So it really just depends on how much you want to eat those Oysters.
