I got a few scented yankee candles as a gift and im 14 weeks now. The smell is bohot strong sometimes and i started wondering if lighting them daily is okay for baby. Anyone used these during pregnancy?
I always suggest asking your gynac about any scented products or candles before using them in closed rooms. During pregnancy, our bodies are very sensitive. Just ask your doc in the next visit to be 100% sure.
Oh, even I was wondering about this yesterday! I have so many scented candles at home and my room smells like lavender right now. Is it really that bad, or is a little bit okay if we keep the fan on?
Kyun फालतू me expensive candles pe spent karna when we have simple solutions? If u want good smell, just boil some lemon and cinnamon on the stove, ghar pure naturally scent ho jayega. No chemicals and totally safe.
Strong artificial fragrances can sometimes mess with our hormones or trigger nausea, so be thoda careful. For thyroid or other issues, regular doctor checkups are a must anyway, so just ask your doc once about these things. I preferred keeping rooms naturally ventilated.
Between office work and managing house, I didn't have time to research candle ingredients, but I just avoided them in closed bedrooms. If u really want to use them, light them in a big living room with good ventilation. Keep it simple and don't overcomplicate daily life.
Honestly yaar, with my crazy sleep schedule right now, I could sleep next to a running tractor and not notice, let alone a candle. Yankee candles are mostly fine but some strong smells can trigger a headache or nausea. Better to keep windows open if u want to light them.
I completely understand how we double-check everything, especially after a long journey to conceive. It is better to avoid heavily scented artificial candles as they might have chemicals like phthalates. Maybe try natural beeswax or soy candles for absolute peace of mind, dear.
I actually bought a vanilla Yankee candle during my second trimester because I wanted a relaxing vibe. But honestly, the moment I lit it, my head started hurting. I had to put it away and just stick to fresh air.
Just keep a positive mind and don't stress over small things, everything will be fine. Instead of heavy chemical candles, you can light a simple diya with a drop of sandalwood oil. It brings such a peaceful energy to the house.
Oh god, just reading about scented candles is making me feel a bit queasy, mere saath toh terrible nausea tha. Strongly advise keeping these away for now because strong artificial smells can trigger bad vomiting. Try natural options like fresh flowers instead.
