A member asked:

Had clothes shipped to me from store. tried on about 5 things and they all had a chemical smell to them. 27 weeks pregnant - harmful to baby?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I wouldn't: Wear them....I'd go for the non smelly clothes. Good luck on the pregnancy. (which by the way may increase your olfactory senses.).
