Yep,

It doesn't matter if it comes from ingestion or inhalation once it gets into the
body, it can still cause quite a bit of damage. It doesn't have to cross the
placental barrier to cause damage. The early-stages of development are fairly
sensitive to radiation and teratogens.

First question is:

Will it actually cross the placental barrier?

and the second question is - just how high a dose does the mother need
to get enough to cause this? (And is it realistic to believe that she
could have gotten this dose?)

Basically - you have no idea what you are talking about and are simply
making things up.

Ignoring the potential radiological effects, the chemical toxicity is
well-documented. You can't ignore the data on the matter.

Read through the annexes and take a look at the data.
