HELP! Have I been exposed to harmful industrial chemicals?!

[IVFWarrior123]

Hi everyone. This is a weird one, and I cannot find any info online. My street was closed to traffic today due to road resurfacing works. I had to walk up & down the street several times today, alongside the works. I'm currently 8 weeks pregnant, and scared that I was exposed to harmful industrial toxins. There were a lot of fumes and strong smells (not to mention dust), and I did feel at one point that I became a bit breathless as the air was so thick. Any help or insight would be hugely appreciated.

You will be absolutely fine, if there was a risk the road would have been shut to pedestrians.

I agree with above. Dust etc no problem as filtered by your nose, and well ventilated, outside.

Hi @IVFWarrior123
Don't worry about it hun. It was outdoors not in an enclosed space, it'll be ok xx

Thanks guys, and thank you for being so quick to respond and reassure. Struggling with knowing the importance of the first trimester for baby development, you want to avoid every risk but it's impossible to. It's a tremendous amount of pressure.
