A member asked:

I am currently 12 weeks pregnant and i accidentally fell asleep with my heated mattress pad on the lowest setting. should i be worried?

Not particularly. The fetus is surrounded by layers of tissue and fluid distant from any surface skin. Warmth on your outer skin does not elevate the temperature the fetus would encounter.
