Neighbours renovating while pregnant

Hi, I'm a FTM who is 27 weeks pregnant. I have two neighbours who recently started their renovation and the smell of dust and even paint in my house is quite strong. Do you a similar experience and if so, how do you deal with it? Do I have to move to my parents house for this time period? #pregnancy #firstbaby #1stimemom #advicepls #pleasehelp

I had similar encounter as you. What I did was to close the front door, windows and run on our air purifier. We also use our robo cleaner and vacuum to manage the dust around the house. But if the paint is getting stronger at your end despite using air purifier, suggest you to move back to your parent house as paint is toxic to your unborn.

Best to move if u can. My house was under reno while I was pregnant and I stayed at my mom's till everything is settled, mainly cz I have asthma too and the dust may worsen my condition.

currently 25weeks and neighbours just completed reno. no issue for me, just make sure close the door

Close the windows and get a air purifier..
