Carbon monoxide exposure has been described as having both acute and chronic effects; acute intoxication early in pregnancy has not been previously reported, however. A case of carbon monoxide poisoning at 8 weeks' menstrual age is described with good fetal outcome. Appropriate literature is briefly reviewed.
