What people do not realize, however, is that bleach can have adverse effects on children who simply live in a household where it is often used to clean. When used as a cleaning agent, bleach remains on surfaces and continues to emit fumes

Bleach is highly irritating and corrosive to the skin, lungs, and eyes. Fumes from bleach are very potent, as you can tell by the smell, and when inhaled they can cause a wide variety of health problems. Bleaches that come in thick liquid form or gel often produce the most harmful fumes.

This is what Alberta Health says about bleach use in the home. Everyone has a preference 🤷🏻‍♀️ My son has special needs and is very sensitive to smells. We use green products in our home but many don’t. Everyone’s different ❤️

Ps you said “bleach crazy” and “use it on everything” but then kinda changed what you said so you made it sound pretty excessive.

Is use bleach free products generally, it’s not good for you to use excessive amounts.

@beakymcspence lol it's more complicated then that. ill pm you

@mhbb3, LOL oh no a stand off! You both want a different name?

@beakymcspence SO and I are in a legit standoff about it. Not even joking😑 I can't even bring myself to post about it.

@mhbb3, Team boy also! Did you guys choose a name yet. We are going with Tiger Gray Spence

@beakymcspence

What about you??

@beakymcspence Another Boy 💙

@mhbb3, Your getting close!

Do you know what your having?

@beakymcspence

I know lol! I thought I was losing it but once I understood where the urge was coming from it was easier to fight. Even talking about it trips something lol. Tbh I'm glad to be nearing the end lol

@mhbb3, It’s so not made up nonsense!

@beakymcspence I was obsessed with smelling gas this pregnancy. Now I just dont allow myself to go in the garage because my so was all over me about it. He thinks pica is made up nonsense

Bleach isn’t allowed in my home 🙅🏼‍♀️🙅🏼‍♀️🙅🏼‍♀️

@beakymcspence oh Yaya lol i hate it cuz I know both of them and bad to breathe but it's like I can't help myself

@lexy0610, 😂😂 luckily in about 9 weeks it should go away!

@beakymcspence I've never had it untill now lol that makes sense why I wanted to eat some odd things lol and the smell of car gas I love it as well

@lexy0610, Yep it’s the PICA phenomenon lol I’ve yet to have it but my patients have told me some funny things they’ve craved. The one lady I had was so embarrassed she craved the smell of her older child’s dirty diapers, and another was obsessed with smelling jiffy markers.

@beakymcspence that's so weird I would never buy it untill a few months ago I didn't even go to indoor pools that used it cuz the smell would make me want to be sick lol

@lexy0610, See! There’s a reason your loving the smell of bleach right now that you didn’t enjoy before 🙊

@beakymcspence oh wow and my doctor just gave me a prescription for iron pills cuz she said it was very low

@lexy0610, It’s really common and called PICA. It’s often caused by an iron or other mineral deficiency during pregnancy. Women often crave smells a few common ones are:

Nail polish

Acetone

Windex

Bleach

Gas

Rubbing alcohol.

It’s weird but completely common and normal. My sister was low on iron and legit cravesd the smell of nail polish remover and rubbing alcohol. I’ve had a number of patients with some weird ones lol

@beakymcspence lol yea but it's weird because I used to hate the smell of bleach untill this pregnancy like I'm not going to lie my kids aren't aloud in my room so I use it more so in my room then anywhere

@lexy0610, Definitely good that your mixing heavy on the water lol!

@beakymcspence I use a bit with alot of water

I use tf out of bleach because I don’t like filth!

@lexy0610, What are you using straight bleach and water or a bleach product? You should definitely be cautious while pregnant and properly ventilate the area ❤️

@beakymcspence no I know I didn't mean like every day every other day I use it and always when I'm alone

@lexy0610, Sweet I’m simply stating the facts hun. Your post says one thing and now it’s like your trying to back track what the post says. You said you use it on everything and are bleach crazy. Not judging but you asked if your the only one and I’m simply saying why we don’t use it lol. No ones judging you ❤️

@beakymcspence well I wipe down with it like walls and doors

@beakymcspence I did not know that.

i use it every evening in my kitchen and every few days in my bathroom. I dont feel like it's clean if i dont.

@beakymcspence well I use it like 2 times a week for living room and kitchen but bathroom is everyday/ every other day

@mhbb3, Yes!! There was a lady obsessed with pinesol too!

I saw an episode of my crazy addiction where a woman constantly cleaned with it, smelled it even bathed with it!
