I doubt Luna is pregnant if her last heat cycle was in October, unless you think she may be having a heat cycle now. Red skin and scratching could be a sign of allergies or skin parasites. Vomiting can be a sign of many diseases ranging from intestinal parasites to food sensitivities to organ diseases. If she is vomiting profusely, uninterested in eating, or seems lethargic or painful I’d recommend seeing your vet.
