Can I dye my hair during pregnancy? Are the ammonia fumes dangerous for my baby?

My hair has been turning white/grey since I was 18, so I have been dyeing my hair. But now that I am pregnant, I am not sure if I should continue. Any advice?

Most doctors will say that it's safe to do so but best to take precautions. If you really have to, at least wait til the second or third trimester. Also, maybe highlighting instead of dyeing the entire head could be another option?
