Cleaning up after a pet while pregnant?? A good face wash?

Question

I know that you are not supposed to mess with cat feces or clean up a litter box, but how about a puppy or dog??? I have a little chihuahua puppy and I have to clean up his pen. Of course I always wash afterwards but I was just wondering if there are any risks? Also, what is a good safe face wash to use while your pregnant? (I go to my Dr. next Tuesday and I will ask him this also) but I need some info till then. Thanks!!!

Answer 1

i think dog should be safe, they dont want pregnant women messing with cat feces because of a toxin in it, but ive never heard about dog...
i use clean and clear makup remover, its really gentle, but im still breaking out!!! so good luck!

Answer 2

dogs have can have hookworms in there fece's ( if there infected) that can cause serious harm to an unborn child
you just need to Protect yourself wear gloves and a mask, and make sure you clean you hands and anything else thcat comes in contact with fecal matter
hotter the water the better and anitbacterial soap& agitation so to get all dead skin cells & bacteria off as well as wash
( i keep one in just about every room of my house you never know what is where)
as far as your face wash the only thing you should not be using on your face is Retin - A also know as tretinoin
otherwise use what you have now till you figure out that is is not meshing well with your skin type due to changing hormones one day it might be great the next you might have either really dry or really oily skin .

Retin - A in Pregnancy: Damaging effects on the fetus have been described in animals receiving oral tretinoin. It is expected that oral tretinoin will also cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Despite a lack of adequate studies of topical tretinoin in humans, there is concern about using tretinoin during pregnancy. Physicians must weigh the potential risks and benefits when considering the use of tretinoin during pregnancy.

Nursing Mothers: It is unknown whether tretinoin is distributed into breast milk. It is also unknown if topically applied tretinoin accumulates to an extent sufficient to pose a concern in the infant. Nonetheless, since oral tretinoin is not recommended during lactation, it probably is prudent to avoid nursing during treatment with topical tretinoin

I am not certain but I have never heard that you can not clean up after a dog while pregnant.

As for a face wash well I would think that anything would do. If you are concerned about chemicals or smells from it maybe an organic face wash would be best. You could try one from Arbonne or go to a local health store. They sell all kinds of things like that.

Answer 4

you can still pick up your doggies poop without any potential risk to the baby. But if you have a spouse you can tell him to start cleaning up after the dog cause you cant. ha ha.

But seriously if you are concerned you can always use gloves to clean up.

As far as a face wash I don't know of a specific one that is especially good to use while pregnant. if you find it out let me know. :)

should be fine to clean up after doggie, especially if you used to do it before you got preggers. doctors even say it's okay to clean up after your cat if you've always done it (it means you've already been exposed & created antibodies to the disease they may carry--the danger to the baby is if you are exposed for the first time while pregnant)
