Probably not: Babies in utero are most sensitive to environmental toxins during the first trimester when the organs are developing. Continue your weekly prenatal visits with your provider at this paint to insure your developing baby remains healthy.

Don't worry: The little bit of chemical that likely actualy got into your system is miniscule, tiny. The lining of your nose filtered out most of the stuff that entered, and there are no large amounts of anything harmful to the baby. Your body would clear out things that would get past the nose filter barriers before it would get to baby. ( if you were huffing the stuff all the time, different answer.).
