Pregnancy and New Flooring

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone could help me.
We’re getting new flooring in the kitchen / dining area and we were going to go for Luxury Vinyl Flooring. However when you research this is talks about how it has VOCs and can release toxins into the air.
Has anyone has LVT while pregnant? Has it affected anyone? Or am I just being over - cautious? Would really appreciate some advice on whether to go ahead and buy this or not. Thanks!

Not sure but could you call the company and ask? I would imagine that unless you’re laying it yourself the fumes would be so minimal but I could be totally wrong. We’re having tiling done this week and I’ve just made sure I’m not in the same room and kept windows open.

Thanks. I did phone them and they couldn't tell me whether the flooring had low VOCs or not, which is not ideal. Thanks though!
