Deep freeze in pregnancy

Hi, I've had terrible muscular pain down my side and a have used deep freeze spray several times. Have realised that this isn't suitable in pregnancy and am really worried about what damage I may have done. Does anyone know what the side effects can be for baby?

I stand to be corrected but ... the only ingredients I can find listed are

Pentane, Butane 75, Denatured Ethanol, Levomenthol ...

I'd imagine the issue is with the denatured ethanol, aka alcohol. However unless you're spraying it in your mouth I doubt you're absorbing that much from your skin that it will cause any harm. I wouDNt be too concerned just stop using it and mention it to ur midwife next time.
