Is It Safe To Sleep In The Basement During Pregnancy?

Hi there, I'm 4 months pregnant and moving into a house where we will be sleeping in the basement (but the rest of our living will be upstairs). It's a brand new house (finished 4 months ago) and the flooring is heated (bamboo flooring). There is a small window in our room, and a small window in the baby's room.

Is it healthy during my pregnancy to sleep in the basement?
Will be ok for my baby when he/she is born?
