A member asked:

A tiny bit of bleach got into my mouth while pregnant is my baby going be okay?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No worries: A "tiny bit of bleach" is no problem. After disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, wars, etc..., we can add a little household bleach to our drinking water to make it safer to drink (The amount is 2-3 drops of bleach for each quart of water. Mix it and then let it sit for at least 30 minutes before drinking.)
