There have been no safety studies on Flagyl (metronidazole) with pregnant women. Flagyl shouldn't be taken in the first trimester, but that applies to many drugs.

In general, there's been no evidence of flagyl causing birth defects in humans. Studies with very high doses have been shown to cause birth defects in some animals, but these doses are well beyond what would be prescribed.

There is a metronidazole gel that may be more appropriate, as comparitvely little will enter systemic circulation.

Can trichomonasis only be through sexually contact only?

Trichomoniasis is caused by a protozoan (the smallest, single-celled members of the animal kingdom). Trichomonas vaginalis is passed almost 100% of the time through sexual contact. Trichomoniasis is primarily an infection of women's vaginal and urinary tracts. A woman is most susceptible to infection just after having completed her menstrual period. Men also may carry the organism unknowingly, since infection in men may cause mild or no symptoms.
