I am not sure if I am being an over anxious new mum. My ds is 4 months old and I really struggle with concerns about his health.
We live in an apartment, our neighbours on both sides smoke on their balcony. We live on the top floor and we have a black roof, our apartment is already too hot. When they smoke they shut their doors and windows but we are not aware they are about to start smoking so we don't get the chance to shut our doors and windows.
Last summer I was pregnant and we asked our neighbours to let us know when they were going to smoke so we could shut all our windows/doors.
Last night one of the other neighbors had a party, the noise doesn't bother us at all but the party guests would go to the apartment entrance and smoke whith the door open so the smoke wafted up the stairs and there was a strongish smell of smoke in our apartment at bed time :(
I am wondering if I am being unreasonable to be so worried about this smoke, I am not sure if enough would get into our home to cause a danger. I am not worried about the smell it is the health risk I am worried about.
We have fans but I think especially the bedroom is still too hot for my baby to sleep in.
We have been to look at houses today with the thought of moving, it is such a shame because I love the location and the apartment we live in, am I being overly worried about the smoke?

AIBU to be worried about cigarette smoke wafting into our apartment from other apartments?
