I am just wondering cause I have a 3 months old son and I have still been vaping outside and not around him. And if possible I would like to stay indoors due to our freezing temp.

Unless you are blowing it in his face you should be fine. Every device I have seen is pretty much the same when it comes to this. The vapor is gone in about 8 econds. stay 3 feet away and it should never even reach your son.
Happy to help! Amazing the freedom these devices give us isn't it?Thanks sooo soo much. huge help. I ammuch relieved.
It sure is. when smoking analogs I would have to load him into the car and hope that he would stay quiet long enough fro me to get even half a smoke in. lol VAPING IS AWESOME!!!
I have been smoking in the car with my two boys (I never smoked in front of them and now I have a big enough car that they can't even see me vaping) and they never even notice because the vapor dissipates so quickly.
I agree ... stay at least a few feet away from him and he will be fine.

That was my answer too Mac, while there is mist exhaled, the chart below is from the October 2008 results of

The harmful effects from VG or PG is non-existent. In fact the anti-bacterial properties of both would negate any cause for harm.

Because inhaled nicotine is over 98% absorbed6, the exhaled ‘smoke’ is propylene glycol
minus the nicotine, and any exhaled PG mist dissipates within seconds. Without the
gaseous products of combustion, the ‘smoke’ is not harmful to bystanders. The ‘smoke’
or mist is not tobacco smoke, and not from combustion – no flame is lit – and is not
defined as environmental tobacco smoke. and e-cigarette “smoking” would be permitted
under New Zealand’s Smoke free Environments Act31.

dilution is the solution; it will dilute in ambient air quickly.
automotive exhaust is extremely toxic; luckily it dilutes in the air and does not kill us on the spot.

Yeah, I'm glad you care that much about your son. If it were me, yes, I'd do it around him (within reason) and probably even turn on a fan/ceiling fan to stir things up even more.
Kate, is the FDA simply ignoring this report from New Zealand simply because it wasn't done by them? It sounds pretty thoroughly tested, in a way that would make anybody understand the effects of e-cigs and it's mass health effects in contrast to traditional tobacco cigs.
I'd love to see an explanation of how one's lungs or airway mucous membranes are supposedly able to extract 98% of the nicotine and leave the vapor to be exhaled. I'm really having a hard time buying that.
that's not what we are saying. What we are saying is that vapor doesn't behave like smoke. Try it for your self. Blow a big puff of vapor out and count how many seconds before it's gone. Should be about 5-8. Real smoke hangs in the air for hours.
i am thinking it is because of the weight of the nicotine and when you vape, you get the hit in your mouths membrans verse the gas exchange in the lungs...
Acetaldehyde is a probable carcinogen and damages DNA, but it's okay because it's in coffee bread and fruit too.
But that's something that could be severley misconstrued by malicious people.

Seems that way, doesn't it!! Ruyan paid dearly for that testing, I'm so glad they were able to succeed to the point they have. NZ is in the grip of the no-smoking vise (as is the rest of the world), because of Anti-Smoking-Activist groups. I feel the testing was immensely important to us all. But a quirky thing happened: New Zealand Health defended their position against our FDA's position. It was wonderful!!
The Dekang co in China is also gearing for FDA approval, they market most of the world's e-liquids (90%, according to their Website). I believe Ruyan will also, these are really the only entities in the world who would possibly have the financial punch to be able to afford it. To my mind the FDA is way overboard on their ability to be able to 'weed out' the small guy trying to gain access to the market. It's all about money, and that's just wrong, but that's the way it is. It shouldn't cost Billions of dollars and years of 'political' pandering to see that a new technology is ok for distribution. Big Pharm and Big Tobacco have seen to that, as well. WHO, ASH, and a host of others also have their many legs in the pot as well, very daunting.
I say, slap on a "use at your own risk" tag on e-cigs, just like they do with so-called miracle drugs and chemically-created cigarettes, they always have the option of removing them from the market if harm is done.
People can still buy cigarettes all around the world on every street corner. Go figure. Good source of Tax Revenue? They are also aware People die from them.
Many times FDA 'approved' something that perhaps wasn't clinically acceptable in long-term use. More People die. However just watch some info TV late at night, there are many potions for sale that have no FDA stamp. When they're caught they change the name and re-advertise. Same stuff, different day.
Our System needs big-time overhauling. Don't hold your breath on that one.
I have a three week old nephew who I spend a lot of time with and I vape around him, but always blow it the opposite way and I don't use it when I'm holding him.(Just to be on the safe side)
