I got told that when my girlfreind was pregnant lol but I think its a load of rubbish I had three snakes in living rooms and never had any problems and now have a perfectly healthy 18 month old daugter keeping us on our toes lol. And congratulations :)
Shouldn't see why it is a problem aslong as there looked after well and cleaned out n kept in good conditions. Shouldn't be an issue.
Congratulations too.

Oh this old wrinkly crotch appendages. Snakes 'carry' salmonella and a few other bugs in their mouth and in their poop. Pregnant women getting salmonella sick is risky for the tummy spud, but only about as risky as a block of un pasteurised cheese in the fridge that she won't eat. I personally wash my hands after dealing withy the snakes, it should be standard practice for all of us so the risk to us, pregnant or otherwise should be very very low.
safe
