I have been using the Jergen's natural glow express (on and off). I am 8 weeks pregnant, and it didn't dawn on me that a lotion could be harmful during pregnancy. Has anyone spoked to their doctor about using self tanners? Thanks.....just worrying a bit!

  1. Tannings bad!


  2. there has not been enough research done on the chemicals in self tanners to know wheather or not it is safe or unsafe .... ask your doctor what he/she thinks

  3. ... Are you serious?  I really hope that you don't teach your child that it's healthy to be obsessed with his/her looks.  

    Talk to your doctor.  I recommend you stop, regardless.  

  4. There are some ingredients to watch for in lotions while pregnant but sorry at this moment I can't remember their names or find the website that lists them. Read the back and if it says to consult a doc if pregnant then you should probably hold off until you're able to speak to him. I've been using some CVS off brand and my doc ok'd it.  

  5. Using the lotion should be fine and it looks like you're using a good brand, however please don't go to a tanning salon or sit on a tanning bed where they shine those scary-looking lights on you. You know this already though, so best of luck to you and your baby.
