Irrational fears or should I be fearful?
So I’m 12 weeks pregnant as of today and of course I’m going to talk to my doctor about his, but I just like support and hearing about other moms experiences. So this pregnancy is completely different than my last pregnancy. My last pregnancy their was no pandemic and I didn’t rent an apartment I lived with my in-laws with my husband. This pregnancy their is a pandemic and we live on our own now. We just moved into this new apartment and we’ve only lived here for 2 1/2 weeks and it’s a breath of fresh air compared to the last place except for one thing. Bugs. When I say bugs I’ll be specific; rolly pollies, spiders, and just today roaches. The roaches just showed up and were in our kitchen by the sink and literally just appeared. Thank God my husband was off today and was able to help me clean. We had sprayed just some stuff you can buy at the store that we could spray inside and outside the doors and around the baseboards. But also to add the baseboards are damaged and lifting. We already called the front office and they’re spraying for an infestation tomorrow. My fear is if all this going to harm my baby? The bugs the damaging baseboards and the chemical smells? Has anyone gone through something similar? Did anyone have the same fears and baby came out fine and healthy? I’m worried baby won’t make it or come born sick with a weak immune system. Also I know roaches cause asthma and I made that clear to management that this is not the time to develop respiratory problems so we need to find some solutions. Especially for my 5 year old. Also idk if I’m over reacting or acting like a normal mom. Ugh it’s always something. 😫😖
