No. Scabies is a dermal (skin) disease caused by mites. While small, they are much larger than other types of infectious agents, and cannot enter the bloodstream. In any event, there is a placental blood barrier between the mother and fetus, which blocks most organisms. A scabies mite cannot pass through this barrier. Newborn infants should receive treatment if they are exposed during birth.
