Undiluted bleach fumes during pregnancy

[Ninakita]

The toilet had undiluted bleach in it which I didn't detect until after I'd sat on the loo and peed. I felt my baby moving strangely and then a waft of strong bleach hit me. I am really worried that I may have damaged my baby. Can someone please advise if they have any knowledge about this.

🫣 I had the urge to smell bleach and petrol, strangely for the lasts few weeks of my pregnancy, so spent a lot of my time cleaning … my baby is absolutely fine

*Your baby is fine

Smell of bleach won't harm at all

I bleached my toilets all the way through both pregnancies, both were fine.
Try not to worry

The bleach was diluted - there's a lot of water in a toilet bowl. Your face and nose were quite a number of feet away. It's not like you were sniffing bleach neat from the bottle. Why are you even worrying - are you like this over everything?

You mean through you vagina? No, your baby can't breathe yet.

Through your lungs? No it's fine, pools smell of bleach too and swimming is great in pregnancy

And yeah there's probably a litre or two of water in a toilet bowl, unless you put a crash amount of bleach in it's quite diluted

As long as you didn't drink it you and baby will be fine
