    natural gas leak.

    We have just discovered today that there has been a natural gas leak through our central heating system for god knows how long.

    I am aware that Carbon monixide is the poison gas and the natural gas is not, But could it be potentiall dangerous if I have been inhaling the gas during this pregnancy? Anyone have any experience or expertiese?

    Call your MW or OB or Hospital. Thats what they are there for. No point stressing about it until you know more!

    Sorry you have had this scare, i hope all is ok!

    Hi BubbleKitten
    Your baby will be fine. The gas leak must have been quite small otherwise you would have noticed it. A small leak will not cause any harm

    Alan,

    I did actually notice the smell in the house. But only yesterday. Thus wy we got the plumbers to come fix it ASAP. and i turned off the heating and opened evey door in the house. I am just worried it could of been leaking for longer. But I guess you are right, I would of noticed it prior to yesterday if it was a larger leak.
