How harmful are spray paint fumes while you are pregnant?

I am at work and they are doing some remodeling and they are using spray paint and stain in the same room that I am in. I am 35.5 wks and just wondering if this is going to harm the baby, cause I can't really leave work.How harmful are spray paint fumes while you are pregnant?
That's not good. The fumes are what get you. I would ask for the day off or see if you can work from home. You really dont need to be in that environmentHow harmful are spray paint fumes while you are pregnant?
That happened to me, but i was only 5 weeks pregnant - and the fumes were soo bad, i had to get a fan to blow them out of my door. Still that didn't work. I felt high and dizzy by the time i got home.





Apparently my baby stopped growing at 5 weeks. I lost it at 8 weeks.


Not blaming the fumes, but i know i was not a happy camper and the tiny baby i'm sure wasn't either!!
If the fumes are strong, yes you can and you must. If your employer says otherwise he/she could be getting him/herself in a lot of trouble. Your baby's health is too important to take that kind of a risk over such a thing.
yes it can harm your baby and you have to leave work for the time being while they are painting and your boss can not fire you for this.
i think spray fumes are bad for you health and your baby ask for work at home
