All chemicals should come with a HazMat sheet that lists all active ingredients. Take those sheets to your doctor and have him look at it. He'll be able to give you the best advise.

They never hurt me... but then again, I'm not female, and I've never been pregnant.
Have you tried contacting Kodak and asking them that question? I'm sure they have all the Material Data Sheets in the world on their products, and would know in a heartbeat whether or not any of their chemicals pose any sort of health risk to you or your baby.
Have you asked your Obstetrician? Maybe a fist full of MDS Sheets from Kodak about the chemicals you are putting your hands into could help him or her give you the advice you need.

Only if you breath them in directly and don't have good ventilation. It is best to use a face mask when working in the dark room and wear gloves use tongs when dealing with the chemicals, while pregnant, and make sure the fans and vent system work good. Don't mix the chemicals yourself if you can help it. If you do this you will be fine.

I work in a darkroom often and I've never really had any problems (But then again I've never been pregnant). Perhaps contacting Kodak or Ilford or whichever product you use would be your best bet.

Stay away! Go digital until you give birth. Maybe get someone else to develop your prints.

yes. Try to avoid them as much as you can. Also research how Ansel Adams died in some free time - good luck with your pregnancy!
