19 weeks pregnant. i saw a bug on the couch, maybe first bed bug. freaked out and sprayed the couch with rubbing alcohol. strong smell, is it safe?

Chemicals/pregnant: Air out the room or go into another room,a single episode for a short period should not be an issue. For the future get some N-99 particle masks at home depot and ventilate to room (open window,fan) or have someone else do this if occurs regularly ( hopefully it will not happen again-) . Don't worry.
