Thoda blocked chest feel ho raha hai and i usually rub vicks but now im scared since its going near my pet. Anyone applied it on tummy area while pregnant? Just want to be sure its fine.
Two babies inside meant my stomach was already a volcano, so putting Vicks on it would have literally set me on fire! Haha, but seriously, don't do it. If you have gas or stretching pain, just drink warm water or use simple coconut oil.
I also panicked when my stomach started itching and stretching in the 5th month, and I almost reached for the Vicks bottle! But my gynac said it's totally normal stretching pain and strictly said no to Vicks on the stomach. It's just normal stretching, don't worry at all.
Trust God and keep your thoughts positive, dear. Vicks on the stomach is not safe because of strong camphor. Please don't apply it on the belly. Keep doing your prayers and take care of your health.
I had such terrible morning sickness that even the smell of Vicks would make me throw up! But practically speaking, Vicks on the stomach is a big no because of the camphor content. If you are bloated, try sipping warm ginger tea instead.
Oh no dear, Vicks on the stomach is not a good idea! 🙅♀️ It can really irritate your skin. Better to use a nice gentle body lotion or virgin coconut oil to soothe the belly. Stay happy and glowing! ✨
Arre nahi beta, pet pe vicks mat lagao. It becomes very hot and might irritate your soft skin. If your stomach is itching or hurting, just apply simple warm coconut oil, it is very safe.
Actually, you shouldn't use Vicks on your stomach. Camphor gets absorbed through the skin, and applying it on a large area like the belly isn't recommended. If you have gas or pain, try warm water or ask your gynac for a safe antacid.
My little one is already a toddler now, but I remember having these exact same doubts! Please don't put Vicks on your stomach, it can cause burning or skin rash. You will be totally fine, don't worry, just stick to basic moisturizers.
I am currently in my 2nd trimester and honestly I have been feeling so anxious about what is safe and what is not. Did anyone else also get these random aches on the stomach? I was thinking about Vicks too but then got scared and didn't apply it.
Oh sweetie, I know how hard this phase is and how every little discomfort makes us want quick relief. But please don't apply Vicks on your belly, it is too strong for the baby. Sending you so much love, you are doing great.
If you are feeling heavy or having mild cramps, Vicks won't help on the stomach. I used to do very gentle prenatal yoga stretches and a light 20-minute walk after doctor's permission, which helped so much with digestion and bloating. Do ask your doctor before trying any exercise though.
Honestly, there is no need to put Vicks on your stomach. I had a normal delivery and my doctor always said to keep things simple. If it's for stretch marks or itching, just use a good moisturizer or mustard oil, it works wonders!
I completely understand how stressful it is when your body hurts and you just want relief. I used to panic over every little pain during my pregnancy. But please don't use Vicks on your belly, it's not safe. Try gentle breathing or ask your doctor for a safe cream.
When I was staying at my parents' place, my mother strictly told me not to use strong creams or Vicks on my stomach. She used to give me warm ajwain water if I had gas, or just apply soft ghee on the belly. Try that, it's very soothing.
Haan na, pet pe Vicks bilkul mat lagao, skin bahut sensitive hoti hai pregnancy mein. If you have itching, simple cold milk wash or coconut oil works best, ho na. Take care dear.
