Is bleach a hazard I should be worried about?

Question

I mopped my floor today and now my house smells like bleach. It's not bothering me so I figured i'm fine but I'm not sure if it could be affecting my baby even though I'm fine. Should I be worried ?

Answer

Next time try to use less bleach 😉 bleach is a strong chemical and no one should actually breathe it in. If you clean and there is a strong odor, that means that you're probably using too much. We only use bleach for sanitizing bath toys (with washing them again after) and our washcloths we use as paper towels. When baby comes, it's definitely NOT good for them. 
I would try using more natural products like Green Works, Method, etc. especially when you have baby. They put EVERYTHING in their mouths, just imagine what kind of chemicals are on the surfaces of your home. I'm not a super natural freak, as I do love my chemicals and sanitation lol...but I do try to use the most chemically natural stuff you can find. I'm not a fan of seventh generation things either. Or cleaning with vinegar...ick.

Answer

Half bleach and half water in a spray bottle

Answer

Just open windows and try to go in a different part of the house. I always use bleach in our bathroom but I open the windows and go downstairs when I'm done

Answer

Open up all your windows to get the smell out, I used bleach when I was pregnant on accident but everything was fine. Just air your home out

Answer

Bleach isn't good for pregnant women. I mean you can use it, but if the smell is too strong, I'm pretty sure that's not good. Just open a window for a little while, you should be fine.
