Painting while prego

jules

Okay so were getting ready to move into a new house and got painting to do and I'm physically not gonna do that part but I had some other little things to do around the house and clean the carpets and some cleaning is i t safe for me to be around the pain if I wear a mask cause the man of the house thinks I shouldn't .

Im not really sure but I had the same question the other day except about the exterminator coming. The pregly ladies told me wear a mask an open doors an windows an I should b fine. I hope this helps

Make sure the windows are open and you run a couple of fans. You'll be fine as long as it's well ventilated. Also, you can get the low VOC paints. Less fumes.

Ya I figures if I have the mask it shouldn't be too bad . Thank you

I didnt wear a mask when we did our daughters new room. As @blueberrysmom said open some windows and you will be fine... I also ran the celing fan on high to help circulation..

I didn't wear a mask either when we painted the nursery, kept the door and windows open. As long as you're not sitting there huffing the paint you will be ok.
