No: Especially after the first few weeks, this fear-of-everything is subscientific and driven largely by fear of silly lawsuits. Avoid the mind-altering substances throughout pregnancy, eat sensibly, and enjoy preparing for motherhood -- the world's hardest job.

No: Your skin is a great barrier to any material applied on its surface. The chemicals within the polish remover will not enter your blood & travel to baby.
