What is the effect on baby for using Minocycline by the mother during the first trimester or early pregnancy? Has anyone had real life experience or seen the born baby after such scenario?

Minocycline should not be taken during pregnancy or during preconceptional period ,it may cause discoloration of teeth of baby and may cause skeletal abnormalities like shortening of bones in babies. If you continue your pregnancy get a good level 2 ultrasound done at 20 weeks of pregnancy to rule out any anomaly.
