Tannin Durin Pregnancy* Posted: 04-19-04 04:39am
Hey everyone, ive did some lookin up in my
books and ive read not to be in the sun
too long etc etc.. But is tanning okay
sometimes? I layed out today in a bathing
suit for about 30 minutes, I dont wanna be
sick pale like I am now, just want a
little color. . Not plannin on gettin
dark or anything, just layin out once n a
while on the weekends (work all week
during the day till 5:30). I know fake
tanning is off limits, but do u think
layin in the sun sometimes is okay? Ive
just read to wear some sun block and not
stay out long? I do look a tiny bit red
but I think its cuz I am pretty pale. But
its not burnt and I put some lotion on.
What do ya think? Its finally warm here
and sunny, soo beautiful, I hate to be
inside even for a minute!

I do once in awhile. As I think getting
overheated is what the docs worry about so
take precations to advoid that!

You can tan in tanning beds but sometimes
it discolours your skin.. Check with the
tanning studio to make sure the beds r
safe.. I fake n baked when I was preggy..
N layin out in the sun isnt bad just make
sure you have a bit of shade to n ur not
to hot

Yeah its fine just don't over heat or
anything.... Keep some water with you...
Me and the dog just sat outside for
alittle while.... But if you have
chloasma or any hyperpigmentation they say
not to stay in the sun cause it can cause
permenant discoloration of your skin....

The only thing that they worry about is
you getting too hot. It's not that the
sun is bad for you or the baby. Tanning
beds are ok but you shouldn't lay for as
long as you would if you weren't preggo.
I'm like you I thought they were bad also
but it's just the heat. You can also do
the spray on tans because they usually
don't have any chemicals in them. I've
been asking lots of questions about this
too b/c i'm gettin pretty pasty! Hope
this helps.
