Health care and diet of pregnant women in the work
In previous articles we’ve talked about some of the care we take during a pregnancy both at work and in our food. This time we’re going to have sidewalk precautions to consider in our own home.
The cleaning products we use are mostly safe. However, it is desirable to take some precautions. Some elves have toxicity levels that could damage the unborn baby if the mother does not use them too carefully (with gloves and open windows).
Nor is it good to make mixtures of them, since they could generate gas reactions occur with higher levels of toxicity.
If it has been in contact with these products before knowing of pregnancy, there is no reason to fear a significant impact. With the precautions to take when handling chemicals on a daily basis is risk is virtually nonexistent.
Insecticides
As for household insecticides, have been through tests to ensure minimum levels of toxicity. Nevertheless, having natural alternatives such as traps or ultrasonic equipment can be used to them and avoid harmful chemicals in the environment of our home.
Thinners, hair sprays, nail polish remover or nail not involve danger to our baby. Should be used sparingly and in well ventilated areas, but this precaution should be taken also to anyone who uses them, not just women who are pregnant.
Paints and varnishes
Home improvement work such as painting walls or varnished furniture should try to avoid during a pregnancy. If it is necessary, you can do another person taking advantage of the day on which the pregnant woman is not in the house and ventilate very well until completely dry before returning. However, the presence of harmful toxic products is declining.
A few years ago, almost all paints containing lead, and now this metal is not used in its preparation. If painting is required and cannot avoid the presence of the pregnant woman should choose water-based paints.
