“Can a fetus be affected by chemo exposure ”
My mom was 8 months pregnant with me when my other brother (4yo) was in the hospital at the time with leukemia. He was 4yo so he still slept with my mom and one night the nurse came into the room and the nurse freaked out because she had his pee all over her belly and the nurse said it was dangerous. My mom said he used to always pee in bed and it would always get on her belly. What can that cause?

It’s very difficult to speculate based on above. Type of chemo and dose and frequency of exposure would be important to know. These details will not readily be available. In general, precautions during any receipt of chemo and those in the household are recommended.
