However, I usually recommend that families use common sense in answer to this. Do not expose yourself to anything you think might be dangerous in the first trimester while the fetal organs are forming, and be sure that you work in a well ventilated area when you are painting. - by Marjorie Greenfield, M.D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
