Hey
Weird question, are calor gas heaters safe to use during pregnancy?

I usually use one through winter but haven’t used it during pregnancy as found it sometimes gave me headaches pre pregnancy so didn’t want to chance it.

Yeah, me too! We're actually using them at work ATM as our heating system is being repaired but I've actually switched mine off because I'm worried about using it all day. Already had one MMC so don't want to risk anything this pregnancy xxx

My only concern would be carbon monoxide, so perhaps ask work for an alarm or indicator which will detect any unsafe levels.

I would but I'm actually leaving in a few weeks and I haven't actually told my boss I'm pregnant 😬 he really wants me to stay so think he'd try and convince me if he knew haha. I've turned mine off and layered up, would rather be cold! It's a brand new heater so would hope it would be okay?
