2ndhand smoke on streets

Im in Week 5 and i found out that i was pregnant 3 days before my travel to China for holidays. I really regret coming for holidays now because there are so many smokers on streets. While I try to avoid outdoor as much, it is really tough to avoid completely. I put on mask whenever i'm walking on streets but i am still really worried for the effects. Anyone happened to have similar experience or advice? Sighhh. #worriedfirsttimemum

I totally understand the worry, especially being so newly pregnant and in an environment you didn't expect to be in. The good news is that occasional exposure to secondhand smoke on the street is very different from regular household exposure, and wearing a mask does help reduce what you're breathing in. That said, it might be good to check in with your gynae or PD when you're back just to chat through your concerns and put your mind at ease, since every pregnancy is different and they know your full picture. For now, try not to stress too much about it since stress itself isn't great for pregnancy either - just keep doing what you're already doing with the mask and staying indoors when you can, and you'll get through this trip.
