what safety measures do I take so I can oil paint while pregnant?

I have a sufficient charcoal/hepa filter air purifier,I don’t mix my own paint I don’t use turps or other thinners (I do use liquin) my colors of concern are the cobalts and cadmiums.Will wearing latex gloves and washing up well, not eating or drinking in the studio etc be enough?

In extreme cases of exposure what are the risks for unborn babe?

I am very early on in pregnancy, although art income is my primary source, I will stop painting while pregnant if it is just not safe.
I stopped painting with my first child, even after a blood tox. said there were no levels of lead or other heavy metals.

I am doing my own research but would love to check it against all of your imput and get as many oppinions as I can. ILOVE PAINTING, but I love my babies more!!

ALLERGISTS: Ionic Breeze vs. Hepa Filter :please read question?

All of my family suffers with allergies, I have heard a lot of good things about the Ionic Breese. Recently someone told me that buying that is a waste of money and the Hepa Filter air purifier is better but they did not say why- before I purchase one, I would like some opinions, which is better Ionic Breeze or a Hepa Filter purifier and WHY?? Price is of moderate importance- I want something that will really help with our allergies and is not just a fad. Thank you for serious aswers- I don’t care how long the answer is as long as it is informative and honest.
