Lavender safetyany experts here?

Ok now I bought some lavender EO to put on my dryer balls. We are TTC and now I'm wondering if I shouldn't have done this. I've read you should avoid lavender during the 1st trimester and I've read not during the first 20 weeks. Then I've also read it is completely safe. Is that direct use of it, or even the scent the dryer ball will leave on my clothes? I just had a mc so I'm scared to do anything that could affect the next pregnancy.

ETA and then is there any claim to the estrogenic claim?

I think you'll be fine. i wouldn't soak in a lavender bath every night early in your pregnancy, but the amount on your clothing is so slight it isn't even worth mentioning that its an EO rather than a chemical based scent.
