A member asked:
We recently moved into a new house and there was splatters of paint on the floor. i used my fingernail to pick some of it off the floor. is there a chance of this getting into my bloodstream and harming my baby? i'm in my first trimester?

This paint exposure is very unlikely to affect the baby. Lead testing and environmental testing of your home is advisable if the home is older or in a location at risk
