Are lysol wipes dangerous for pregnant women? i'm use to using them and have not been wearing gloves, even wiped my leg with one after spilling some sauce on it. is this dangerous for the fetus? 13 weeks

Lysol: No. They are safe, but you should still wear gloves to protect your skin while using them. Your fetus will be fine. These wipes are not known to cause birth defects.

Please don't: Lysol is not intended for use on humans. A one time use isn't going to hurt your fetus but it's bad for you, so please stop.
