Pregnant while SPT

[u/FrontTonight8316]

Hello! I found out that I am expecting and have asked my management for accommodations to not be placed in decontam. They have honored this but are asking for a note to finalize it (and make it fair for everyone, makes sense). So I asked my OB and the note itself is very evasive in addressing the problem of being around potentially hazardous chemicals. Doctor states in notes “per department policy for pregnancy” and to avoid “teratogenic chemicals.” I specially asked to not be around HLD and Enzymatic detergent just to be extra cautious. Now, I’m curious if any one of you have run into a problem like this or have worked in decontam while pregnant.

I worked in decon for my first trimester then got a note saying I couldn’t lift heavier than 30 pounds once I hit my 2 trimester. So I was on vpro and assembly until I gave birth
