A member asked:
My husband used spray gel about 30 minutes before we got in the car to drive 5 hours. 23 weeks pregnant and made my nauseous - can it harm the baby?

Nausea: No this exposure to hair gel won't affect your unborn child. It is not unusual during pregnancy to be very sensitive to common environmental exposures. Nausea is a common symptom. Good and ample ventilation during the ride will help decrease this problem.

No: 23 weeks is a safe time--it will not harm your baby--but don't do it again
