A member asked:
14 weeks pregnant and exposed to a natural gas leak (left burner on stove on for 12 hours). we are safe from any fire hazard now but im worried there may have been an effect on the fetus. i didnt feel any symptoms when my husband discovered it?

What you described is not likely to have any adverse effect on the fetus. Carbon monoxide would not reach the fetus and as long as you did not have shortness of breath or other symptoms, enough oxygen would have been delivered to the fetus. Get a carbon monoxide alarm. Wish you good health and a healthy baby!
