Hi,
Thanks for your query,
You seem to have allergic reactions to taxim-o 200. You should immediately stop the drug and take some other antibiotic. You should also take some antihistaminics like cetrizine( 5 mg) once daily for 5 days. It is not going to effect your baby unless it is very severe.
You may consider consulting a skin specialist .
Hope it helps you...
