[quote=Anonymous]We had the wood floors on our stairs and entire second floor refinished last year and they used several coats of regular old high-VOC polyurethane. It was about 900 sq ft total, so much less than you're probably doing. The smell was terrible the two days they were actively applying it, but dramatically improved by the morning after the last coat. Personally, I think it would be much easier to get out of the house for a couple of days now than wait until baby is here or try to have it done while you're in the hospital. I'm not paranoid about this stuff, but I wouldn't really want to bring a newborn home if there were much residual VOC in the air and it'll be that much harder to not go home--it's not like you can go back to the hospital and you'll not want to go to a hotel. Worst case, do it now, plan two nights in a hotel, and you can check in for a third night if you need it.[/quote]
