Tanning Beds And Pregnancy Posted: 10-19-04 10:53am
How unsafe is a tanning bed when you are
pregnant? I have heard that these are
dangerous and I am just curious, because I
work next to this tanning place and they
would give me free tanning but I think its
unsafe and would have to wait till the
baby is born

Hi my name is jenifer and I just wanted to
throw out a suggestion to you. I'm not
sure if tanning is bad for the baby but
you might want to think about your tan and
as your belly gets larger the lighter skin
under your tan will start to look like
streach marks when your skin streaches.
I wasnt really planning on tanning but
just curious because I know that the uva
rays are bad for me and the baby. I'm
probably going to wait till next summer
till I worry about a tan, hopefully by
june i'll be back in shape and back to my
normal size.
