Tanning Bed
Posted: 05-21-05 10:21am

Does ne one think that a tanning bed would hurt like the few 2 or 3 weeks of pregnancy...I didnt know I was pregnant and I went tanning and I think about it a lot....Will it make the baby look weird or hurt it or ne thing even though it was really early. I heard it can bake the baby :( :s

I think you will be okay as long as you stop doing it.

yeah I wouldnt' worry about it.. How far along are you now??? I know i'm so white and I want to tan.. I'm gona ask my Dr. About the fake tan lotion and see if I should use that..(i'm desperate)lol.. I"m 21-22 weeks pregnant.. When I found out I was about 4 weeks to but that really means the baby is only 2 weeks or your concieved 2 weeks ago.. Cause they go by the date of your last period so it adds about 2 weeks on from the time you concieve... So I think your safe.. Good luck
