Does Inhaling Strong Fumes Due To Burning Cause Any Problem In Pregnancy?

Hi, I just found out I was preganant yesterday (4 weeks) and am worried as the week before I accidentally melted the bottom of our toaster on an element on the stove. I was cleaning it up for about 30mins and it was pretty strong fumes that I was inhaling. Do you think it could be a problem this early on in the pregnancy?
