Is Fume Inhalation In A Pregnancy Harmful?
I am currently 6 weeks pregnant, about 3 weeks ago, I was helping my partner cut icf blocks (concrete insulation) with a melting knife. I would have inhaled fumes even thou it was ventilated. Should I be concerned? I was unaware of a possible pregnancy and am now wondering if those toxins could have transferred to the fetus?

Hi,
It can be harmful. Please get a sonography to check fetal status and do not repeat this.
Do let me know the report.
Thanks,
