I would think a little sun would be fine. But absolutely NO beds! Also know that anything that you put on your skin might cross the placenta.





Also a pregnant woman's skin is different than before she got pregnant.





I would never put my baby into a tanning bed.

it will be fine, but when you start to show they will not let you go without a doctors note, my doctor gave me one and i put a hand towel on my belly, that is why i know it is ok

Reply:I would wait. Raising you core temperature, like getting in a hot tub over 105, which a tanning bed does can cause birth defects. This is especially important during your first trimester!!!!!Take the alternative and find a pool to tan next to, that you can dip yourself in the cool water to prevent this. Go get a mystic tan, or self tanner which is perfectly safe just incase, and get yourself a good prenatal vitamin and DHA supplement. Always better safe then sorry for the rest of your life if you might be pregnant.
Reply:I took a test first. It was positive, so no tanning for me this summer. My doctor said only outdoor tanning. Just take a test.
Reply:no u dont need to get in the tanning bed when your pregnant
Reply:It is very bad. I like to tan myself and have had to start doing the tan in a bottle. I get it at Sallys beauty its called tanwise and looks as real at the sun :).





Tanning beds tan you from the inside out so you can imagine what it will do to your baby. Thats why they are bad for you always.
Reply:no u shuldn't do it. That can cause skin cancer.
Reply:my doctor told me I couldnt go tanning because that raises the mothers body temp and if it gets too high it can cause birth defects for the baby if its temp gets too high.
