I love getting manicures and pedicures, and it helps me relax. But now that I'm pregnant, I'm concerned about using nail polish. Is it safe to use during pregnancy, or should I completely avoid it?
Since PCOS makes things a bit unpredictable, I tried to stay on the safer side with products. I avoided regular nail polishes in the first trimester just to be safe. Later I bought a pregnancy-safe toxin-free one after checking with my doc.
Haha I painted my nails bright yellow because I was craving mangoes so badly! Just make sure you wash your hands properly before eating with your fingers. The smell can make u a bit nauseous, so keep a snack nearby!
I remember worrying about this so much when I was pregnant, but now looking at my running toddler, I realize how much we overthink! It is perfectly fine to apply it occasionally. Just enjoy your pampering sessions, they are rare later on!
Arre chill, don't stress too much about small things! Just don't paint your nails in a closed room and avoid biting them. I painted my toenails throughout my pregnancy and my baby is absolutely perfect.
Honestly I didn't have time to worry about this and kept using my regular nail paints for office. Just make sure you sit near an open window so you dont inhale the strong chemical smell. Or switch to those 5-free chemical free brands if you want to be safe and quick.
My gynac advised me to watch out for chemical exposure because of my fluctuating thyroid levels. I would suggest asking your doctor about what products are okay during your regular monthly visit. They can guide best according to your health reports.
