Awww, sorry this happened. I don't have any experience or knowledge on the subject.... Just wanted to let you know I personally think the baby will be fine. :) Chances are you won't even get sick from it... I know if it were me and it was my first pregnancy I'd probably be right where you are now with worry... but I'm fairly confident now after two kids that consuming a bit of mold accidentally during pregnancy will not harm the baby.
Here is a website I found that touches on the subject (consuming mold accidentally):

(P.S) I would *not* recommend taking ANYTHING precautionary like it suggests in the above link while pregnant. If by chance you *do* get sick over the next 24-48 hours, contact your OB just to be safe.
Probably time to clean out the fridge, though. :)

You should be fine, so long as the sauce does not make you physically ill. Your digestive system will kill any mold which was injested and break it down completely before it would ever reach your baby. There are actually people out there who deliberately eat mold, believing that it enhances their immune systems and improves overall health. Not that I would recommend such a thing, but it illustrates the point that most types of mold are perfectly harmless.

Unless you begin to suppose particularly unwell within the subsequent hour or so, you're quality. There are particular hint quantities of mould spores within the air that we breathe in and blue cheese is not anything however mould :) Don't over react and do not suppose such as you ought to swallow Pepto to make your self suppose higher

Yes. The problem would only be if you were vomiting so severely that you got dehydrated o/w don't worry.

You should be fine, after all it is penicillin. If it didn't make you too sick, you'll be fine and so will bubs. Speak to your doctor, though.
