All that I know is that I've been smelling antifreeze fumes in my car for weeks but ignored the smell. While driving one day for approx. 45 minutes, I became progressively dizzier, lightheaded, woozy, nauseous, had a headache, and just felt terrible! (I considered going to the hospital because I felt that badly.) When I arrived home, the onslaught of symptoms I had experienced disappeared about 45-90 minutes later.

After not being exposed to antifreeze fumes for 3 days now, I feel like a new person.

Coincidence? I think not.

Can paint fumes make a baby sick?

While paint fumes should not make a baby horribly ill, I would not recommend having a baby inhale paint fumes for a long period of time. In adults, paint fumes are known to cause headaches by irritating the nose and throat nerves. So I would suggest, if you have painted and cannot avoid having the baby around paint fumes, to open a window or put a fan in the room to help air out the space. for more information: http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/paint/msg0110170323994.html
