I am five weeks pregnant and am very careful about chemicals, toxins, etc. I ran into a tire shop today for what I thought was going to be a couple minutes and it turned out to be more like twenty. The smell of rubber was quite strong and now I am worried that I may have caused our baby harm. Does anyone know if exposure to that smell is harmful to baby?

The way I figure, it's probably less toxic in a tire shop than in your average department store/mall/detergent aisle in the grocery store where there's tons of different chemicals flying around everywhere from all the perfumes and cleaning products mingling.
