So last night DH and I were doing a few things in the baby's room including changing the light bulb. DH was forcing the bulb into the socket a bit too hard and the bottom bit broke in his hand. There wasn't much broken glass but I'm still concerned about the mercury in the bulb especially as it is in the baby's room. What should I do?? We have cleaned up the glass and aired out the room. Have washed everthing on the bassinette, I had quite a few wipes, cloths etc on the shelves of the change table and have just started washing all of them again. The broken bulb only went on the floor. what else should I be doing?? ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

We had one shatter all through our lounge and the people we spoke to said all we needed to do was to clean up the glass. So long as you've cleaned it up and aired everything out properly it should be ok I would think. ------------- Lisa mummy to Ryan http://www.alterna-tickers.com">

It's probably fine like Lisa said since it's aired out etc.
But you could ring the company for advice. -------------
