Hello, my wife is in her third month of pregnancy and I have to say that I am beginning to worry more and more each day. I am not sure what kind of parent I will turn out to be and also there are so many things I will have to learn. What can you tell me about prevention for health problems induced by mercury emissions? Is there some other type of thermometer that can be used?
I am positive that there are some new types of thermometers other than the old fashioned ones, filled with mercury. This means that you can easily avoid mercury being in the vicinity of your baby. And I suppose that is the best possible prevention against that dangerous substance. As for not being a good father, relax, a fact that you are worrying about the thermometer for the baby is a sign of a good parent.
