NO: You and your baby will be fine, but be sure to air out the house and make sure no one smokes!

A family member burned some sage in our house while we were out with our 2 week old. They opened the windows in the house and had fans on for 5-6 hours while we were out. It doesnt really smell but could this be dangerous for infant? Should I worry?
