Lister one: I doubt that the listerine will cause any issue. You won't absorb much as long as you didn't swallow it. Even if you did swallow some, i'm still not worried. Have a good pregnancy!

Listerine use: Unless you were drinking or swallowing listerine in substantial quantities, there should no worries at all regarding its use having any harmful effects on your child. Congratulations!
