34 weeks pregnant and had to use raid ant spray in my room. how long should i wait to go back in? will it harm my baby? the can of spray doesn't say.

No: Most of the harm of pesticides and insecticides are seen in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. You can enter the room after 1 hour. Open the windows. Wash any dishes and utensils that were laying outside. Good Luck!
