Cleaning products generally dont put disclaimers LOL. But same goes to shampoo soaps and even fruits n vegetables full of chemicals right? Like u wanna depend on the system hello critical thinking abit please. Your concerns are valid hey! Even though research havent caught up with exposure to different chemicals and factors to its effect in fetuses, a common rule of thumb of prevention is needed because there are things that will cross into the placenta. https://americanpregnancy.org/healthy-pregnancy/is-it-safe/cleaning-and-pregnancy/ I was worried to bits because i was heavy cleaning the house with chemicals all no ppe for protection. The sense of smell in a pregnant woman is highly likely to benefit chances if survival of a mother n child https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3915141/#:~:text=Heightened%20sense%20of%20smell%20in,embryo%20by%20reducing%20the%20likelihood So what u did was okay it protects u and baby. Natural instincts at play. I chose gentler chemicals for cleaning and laundry all but dont fall for marketing words. Research the chemicals to see whats generally safe, dont need scents n fragances etc. Just be careful moving forward with other environmental factors too but dont go so hard on urself. Ure doing the best u can!

i been doing housework too. i dont think detergent etc will be harmful to the baby. becoz we pregnant lady is more sensitive to smell, and our taste changes due to hormone. same for food, some ppl started hating certain food smell which they used to like e.g. durian. so dont worry.

I doubt it is that harmful, is there a disclaimer that says danger to pregnant moms?

no particular disclaimer...
