The use of home cleaning products during pregnancy often comes with many questions.

In fact, most domestic cleaning products are considered safe for pregnant women. However, it’s preferable to read the instructions because some products can become harmful if used frequently (such as daily), but can be used occasionally. On the other hand, industrial cleaning products have different restrictions. These products, which are often very powerful, can be inhaled and lead to physical reactions in pregnant women. This can include dizziness or vomiting, which is a sign they were in contact with it. In this case, it’s better to consult your doctor or a poison control centre for a full evaluation of the situation.
