My feet and hands have gone super dry this pregnancy and I usually do paraffin wax at the parlour. Now im a little unsure if its fine while pregnant. anyone here used it during these months?
If you are talking about that warm paraffin wax pedicure at the parlor, oh my god, go for it! When you have twins, your feet swell like crazy and it's the only relaxing thing left. Just make sure the salon keeps the temperature safe.
Because of my PCOS history, I always worry about chemicals. I read that paraffin wax for hands and feet is safe, but if you're talking about taking liquid paraffin for stomach issues, please check with your doctor first. I never did anything without asking.
Actually, I had gestational diabetes so I was super careful about everything I put in or on my body. If you mean liquid paraffin for constipation, please don't take it without asking your doc, it's always better to be safe.
Ugh, my feet are so huge right now that even looking at them is tiring. I asked my doc about paraffin wax spa treatments last week and she said it is totally fine as long as the wax isn't too hot. Highly recommend if you want to feel human again!
Honestly I am not a doctor so I can't give medical advice, but I did get a paraffin wax manicure during my third trimester because my hands were so dry. It felt super moisturizing and I didn't face any issues at all.
