Is Inhaling Plastic Fumes Harmful During Pregnancy?
My daughter put a pop corn popping kid inside the oven. It melted inside when we heated up the oven. It lets off a horrible smell everytime we cook in there now. I am pregnant and am wondering if the food I cook in the oven is infused with toxic chemicals from the plastic. If so, is this hurting my baby?

Hello,
Being continuously exposed to plastic fumes and also wormed food in their presence continuously may be toxic and harmful to babies.
If it happened only once it is not much problem but if you are exposed to them often they can be toxic.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
