Your welcome, by what I've read I don't think it's anything to be freaking out too much over just call your doctor tomorrow just to let them know what happened so they're aware.
Thank you so much i was so scared and no hotlines were open and niether was my ob office.....
I googled it and this is what someone wrote, even though I still think you should call just to be safe..
This is obviously a late reply, but I wanted to share this info...
I was just stung by a bark scorpion( at 11 weeks pregnant), in Arizona, which is the only potentially lethal scorpion here. I called poison control and was informed that it doesn't affect the unborn baby, as the poison is spread through nervous system and does not enter blood stream. This poison center, at Banner Thunderbird, is the only place that carries the anti-venom for the bark scorpion, in the Phoenix area. It is shipped from a university in Tucson , and still in a trial period. It is safe for pregnant women if you are having a severe reaction. However, I have just had pain, tingling with sting and did not go to the hospital.
