Major Chemical Exposure

Before I found out I was pregnant (yesterday) I spent six days helping to strip and wax the basement floors of a church. I am COMPLETELY panicked that I have caused the developing baby harm. I have called the midwife at the hospital and she reassured me that inhalation of the specific chemicals I was exposed to at the particular time of pregnancy (in the third week post-conception) suggests that there is an infinitesimal chance that I have caused the baby problems. But of course she couldn't say for certain. What I would love is to know about other women who have had healthy babies in spite of this kind of chemical exposure.

3 days, approx 3 hours each day:
benzyl alcohol
monoethanolimine
sodium xylene sulfonate
dicarboxylic fatty acid
sodium hydroxide
alcohol ethnoxylate

1 day, 3 hours:
2-butoxyethnol
monoethanolamine
alcohol ethoxylate

6 days, max 20 minutes during application with a mop
acrylic polymer
diethyleneglycol monoethyl ether
tributoxyethyl phosphate
styrene/acrylic copolymer
dipropylene glycol methyl ether

And earlier on, I was in the cadaver lab for two hours (first week after conception) and I put mosquite repellent on in the same week (with deet)!!!

Understandly horrified to discover that I was pregnant. I don't want to feel this way. I want to feel overjoyed. This child is SO wanted.

Im not really sure....I was around a lot of chemicals in my first trimester as i work making fiber glass bodies for cars and the resen is very hazerdous. My doctor told my I would be fine as long as I stopped now that I knew I was pregnant and everything was fine with her for the first few ultrasounds. Im not sure if this has anything to do with it at all but on the last ultrasound her head is developing a bit slower than it should be and I see a specialist in 2 days, but everyone is different and this could be unrelated. I wouldnt stress on it at all until you have a reason to because a lot of stress while pregnant is not good at all.
