Home Improvement Contractor - Licensed Contractors
I'm 4 months pregnant. Is hanging drywall a safe activity for me?
I am not going to be personally hanging the drywall. a contractor is coming in and doing it but has warned about the dust. I have tried looking for information about this on search engines but to no avail. any advice?

- I think it should be ok maybe wear a little mask thing
- Its not a big deal its only drywall not asbestos or something. Dont worry it just makes a huge mess.
- i helped my husband with drywall when i was that far along, nothing happened i had a healthy baby girl 7 months ago
- It's safe. I'd reccomend you get a carpenter's mask at your local home depot, but other than that...as long as you aren't physically hanging it yourself, there shouldn't be an issue.
- Stay away from it, if possible. Use ceiling fans. Open the windows to get the dust out. Wear a mask when you vacuum.
- If you're in doubt, ask your dr.
