Poisoned my unborn baby

Somica
I am 6 weeks 2 days pregnant and have severe asthma. Recently I was diagnosed with bacterial bronchitis and pneumonia for which I have been given antibiotics ( amoxicillin), cortico-steroids ( prednisone and methy-prednisone), albuterol and  magnesium sulfate for 4 days. I recently was told by a friend that these steroids are a risk category D in the first trimester. I researched it and they can cause everything from a cleft palate to heart defects to still birth!
The doctor was adamant that the risks of not getting enough oxygen to my baby are worse than those of these medications. What should I do?
