Especially now that your are pregnant - why risk it. Get a new pan.

scratched non stick is not good for you, the paint peels off.

There are many websites with information pertaining to Tetanus which do not include a single sentiment related to the ingestion of rust, therefore, without conducting test yourself (of which many extensive tests have been conducted and published by various private companies) you can deduce that rusty objects are not toxic if ingested. Please note that there are products that do produce toxic substances when they come into contact
There is the matter that you are pregnant and there would be a risk of tetanus if you were to infect a cut or open wound. this is mind i would say to stay away from them in the future. but if you have used it dont worry

Yeah, I wouldn't use them if I were you. The flakes can break off into your food. Especially since you're pregnant, I wouldn't take the chance. If you do get a new pan, check the link below to see how to take care of it..

Alot of very bad advice
The person who was talking about tetnus is wrong, tetnus isnt caused by rust, ti is caused by a BACTERIA.
One person told you to use aluminum. DON'T, unless it is hard anodized and even then I wouldn't use it if I was pregnant.
On persid said the nonstick was paint. It isn't
You mentioned it was non-stick. The teflon coating is supposed to be biologicly inert so the flakes of teflon itself are not dangerous, but gross. But if you raise the temp of the pan teflon "outgasses" and the gas IS considered poisonous. I agree with the poster named john holmes, why risk it?. I'd just throw the pans away or give them to goodwill. I would use teflon pans or cast iron only in moderation while pregnant. I wouldn't refuse to eat food cooked in it, but I would avoid it at home. I would use mostly stainless or enamel coated steel.
