1st Trimester

Off the wall question..

I'm curious, do you think it is safe to use a pressure washer while pregnant?   I'd be washing the grime off a fence.   Since it would be outside and I don't have to stand next to the machine, just the hose, the fumes shouldn't be bad.   I'm just impatient on waiting for the DH to do it and it needs to get stained before all the gardening is started.  It's supposed to be nice over the weekend so I was thinking if I can get it washed by tomorrow, it'll be dry enough for staining by Saturday.   Am I being overly ambitious and impatient or would you go for it?

    I was talking to my dad and his concern is since it is generated by gasoline it gives off fumes whiles it's on would be harmful.

    I was thinking that as long as it is outside and ventilated it shouldn't be bad.
