I sprayed my room 3 hours ago with bug spray and I put a fan in the window to hopefully get rid of the smell, but it still kinda smells funny..I hope this doesn't hurt my unborn baby!

After talking to my doctor Tuesday about this very thing I was assured that I would have had to breath alot of it in to get even close to harming the baby. He said most OTC pesticides and insecticides are really diluted but if I had a pro come in and do it that I should stay away from home for a day or so since they get full strength stuff. Just let your OB know that you sprayed some and ask that they take a careful look at your next ultrasound to make sure since some chemicals used to kill bugs have been known to cause birth defects.

As long as you have SOME ventilation, you'll be fine.
It's hard not to get obsessed over these things! Trust me--I'm there. I worry about drinking tap water even and we live in a city with great water!
Just keep the ventilation going and I hope the bugs stop!
