Reptiles are known for carrying the salmonella bacterium. Although the risk of humans contracting salmonella from handling reptiles is extremely low. Standard hygiene practice after handling is all that's necessary to eliminate that risk. As with any pet, you should always wash your hands after handling - just in case.
However - I personally would advise any pregnant woman to avoid handling reptiles altogether - as a safety precaution.
