Hi,
Yes, please go for anti rabies injection immediately. It is absolutely safe in pregnancy, and does not harm the mother or the baby. It is necessary as it looks like you have had a deep bite.
Make sure the wound is clean and doesn't get infected.
The baby will not have any complications due to the dog bite.
But you may get rabies if not taken the vaccine, so please take it at the earliest.
Hope this helps.
