A member asked:
My wife was cooking and her belly was exposed to hight heat for over 30 minutes. will this have any effect on the baby? she is 7 weeks pregnant.

Probably not: The tissues in your body have a high ability to transfer and dissapate heat. Just because the skin was exposed to some heat, and I am assuming your wife has no burns, it would be extremely unlikely that the baby was exposed to an increase in temperature.
