No effect on baby. But you need to be treated as the fungus will spread further on your body and also to others in the house. One antifungal is safe in pregnancy. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment advice.

Fungal infection will not have any effect as such on the fetus. Dont worry about the marks. For all your queries whether the infection is cured and if you need to continue medicines - would best advise you to see a dermatologist personally.
Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Bengaluru.
