Usually, pregnancy lowers the immune system of a woman because the woman’s body is under a lot of stress and it consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, if there are conditions for dust mite allergy occurring, that will happen. You should try elimination dust mites as much as possible by cleaning and washing often, keeping as less furniture as possible in the house etc. There are some meds that can be used, but since you are pregnant, you might want to consult your doctor about those.
