okay to work in greenhouse setting?

i just found out im 5 wks pregnant and i currently work in a greenhouse part time...3 days a week. Its dealing with plants and vegetables....i usually work 8-5pm and do simple tasks like clipping plants to sticks or rearranging things but is it unsafe for me to be in greenhouse setting regardless?
please let me know because i dont want to harm my little jellybean inside at all or cause any problems...

I would also keep track of the temperature as well.....if it's really hot in there then you don't want to get overheated. If that's how it is then you definitely want to keep hydrated or take breaks as needed. Chemicals would definitely worry me though.

Do they use any chemicals or is there anything you could potentially breathe in that's harmful?
