concerned to be dad

My wife and I recently found out that we are pregnant.  However, I am taking propecia for male hair loss and was wondering if I should be worried about birth defects.  My wife has never be in contact with the medicine and our doctor already said not to worry about anything, I was just wanting a second opinion.

I've been trying to convince my husband to take that exact Rx, he wont (23 and hair is thinning).

No you don't have anything to worry about with the baby! Congrats to you and your wife!
