Mosquitoes are crazy at my place right now and i keep getting bitten on my legs. Im 4 months along and was about to apply odomos like always, then suddenly got worried if its ok to put on skin now. Anyone used it during pregnancy?
Small amount on exposed skin is generally ok, dont apply on tummy or face. Honestly i preferred mosquito net and full sleeves more, less chemical on skin is always better in those 9 months.
Pls just ask ur doctor once before using any repellent regularly. I had a sensitive pregnancy so my doc told me to use it minimally and avoid near face. Better to confirm than guess.
I used odomos in patches during my pregnancy in monsoon, mostly on arms and legs, not too much. But i did check with my gynac first since everyone's skin reacts different.
Beta we used it because mosquitoes are bad here and dengue scares everyone. Thoda sa lagana is fine but dont put thick all over. Mosquito net is also good option na.
Don't panic if u already used some. Just use less and wash off before sleeping. For peace of mind run it by ur gynac, they'll tell u based on ur trimester.
My amma said use neem and keep windows screened instead of too much cream. I did mix of both honestly. But anything u apply regularly, one quick word with doctor is best.
