Yes, you can. Although it safest after the first trimester and since you are 20 weeks you are well past that. There have been no links to birth defects, but at the same time there is no proof that it doesn't cause birth defects.The concern is the possible carcinogen link. It is said that the darker the dye, the higher concetration of chemicals. Bleaching or highlighting is considered totally safe. If you are worried but need it done, you can try to find a salon that offers the use of vegetable dyes, although these do not last as long. You could always use Henna.

Exposure to any chemicals is not recommended during pregnancy. However, I do not believe there have been any proved negative side effects to coloring one's hair while pregnant. In fact, that was one thing I continued to do throughout my pregnancy. When my time had come to go to the hospital, my hair had been dyed three weeks prior and was a vibrant purple. Believe me, the nurses and doctors loved it too!
If you continue to have your doubts about what you should and should not do while pregnant, make a list of all your questions and bring it with you to your next pre-natal appointment. They'll be happy to answer all of your questions, no matter how silly you think they sound.

Yes you can dye your hair while pregnant. Just make sure the room you are in is well ventalated. The chemicals do not reach your baby unless you swallow them or really inhale the fumes. If you start to get lightheaded or nausious get some air.

Yes, of course.
Just don't swallow the hair dye, as the chemicals will do harm to the foetus.
