maybe you can get funding to work with this. In Guatemala´s Western
Highlands is the way that people take a bath, it mean to use it at least
two times per week.  After delivering the woman take one bath every day for
14 days. You will find CO in breath above 60 ppm after one hour of
exposition.  The babys will take their first bath (10 minutes or less)
after 3 weeks after birth, it can change. Feeling tire, dizzy, and seepy
are consider for the users one of the normal sensations, if the user starts
to vomit it meens that "they stay too long" or the person who prepare the
bath use too much wood or was green or wet.
