Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
It is true that salicylic acid is not safe during pregnancy. But as you have used it topically on your skin for 2 times only, it should not be a problem and will not harm the baby. Avoid using it and retinoids containing products during pregnancy.
Hope that answers your question,
Regards, Dr.Imaad.
