help - worry about petrol...

Yesterday while I was filling up my scooter, I looked away and some petrol splashed over the top and into the compartment that is under the seat. I had a bag of shopping in there. I took everything out and cleaned it down...

There was an open packet of cream crackers (I'd had a few on route) that seemed perfectly dry and at the bottom of the bag. Tonight, while eating a few, I wondered what the slight smell was and realised the cracker smelt faintly of petrol. I had eaten all 3 crackers by then. And had a couple this morning.

Now I'm totally panicked. I went and threw the last lot up - which is horrible, but I felt so anxious - and now i'm really really worried that I've done the fetus damage. I'm 14 weeks.

They have probably taken on the smell of the petrol rather than actually being covered in it

I don't think anything could harm you or the baby
