Smoke flares - pregnancy

Hi, just looking to see if you'd be concerned. I'm 30 weeks pregnant and went to a rugby match. They started using smoke flares in the crowd. They smelt very strong of smoke/egg. There was no way of getting away from them fast enough but I did put my top over my nose but it was that strong you could still smell it. Security took them away after everyone inhaled them😡🙄 They did this 3 times as well! Am I overthinking it or would you be concerned?

Unless the smoke flare was put into your vagina you’ll be absolutely fine..

You are being a little bit neurotic, you….and your child…will be fine.

Is this what you meant OP?

You're overthinking it.

There is risk involved with smoke inhalation from flares etc. but it would have to be sustained exposure over a period of time. Your placenta does a great job at filtering the usual environmental toxins you encounter daily. Today's experience wouldn't be enough to cause harm. Can understand pregnancy makes you question and doubt so many things x
