    Make sure your room has good ventalation, such as a window being open so the fresh air can come in. If your window has been open, you will be ok to go in. The smell lingers for a little bit, but that spray is pretty safe to use. Thats the spray I use in my house as well.

    Can she sleep somewhere else tonight? The smell lingers forever even till the next day so if I was preggers I would not want to stay in the room for now. For you? I guess u can go back lol

    did u use a bug bomb or just regular spray?

    I would read the instructions on the can to see what it recommends.

    You could always call poison control and talk to them. They would be able to answer your question and tell you when it would be safe for her to go into the room too. Baby / Safety first=)

    I think maybe she should wait too. Does it say on the can how long to wait? I wouldn't take chances if someone is pregnant and err on the side of caution.
