Hi all! Have a little dilemma that I would greatly appreciate some input on. I am 19 weeks pregnant and work as a Home Health RN. Obviously, being on the go, we practically only use hand alcohol hand rubs and use it constantly throughout the day. It didn't occur to me until today...do I need to concerned about using this while pregnant? I know that the alcohol can't be absorbed through adult skin; I am more concerned about what is inhaled. On most occasions when using it I can smell it/inhale it sometimes to the point where it makes you cough...can this be harmful to baby? If it helps we use "Endure 320 advanced care". Thanks so much!
