Fake tan

Has anyone fake tanned during a previous pregnancy (specifically in third trimester)?

We are attending a wedding in a couple of months, so want to look/feel my best during early summer with a little golden glow ☀️ I usually sun it up, so fake tan is a little new haha I read that spray tans are probably best avoided due to inhaling, but creams/mousses/gradual tan are generally okay..? If so, any recommendations?

Obviously, I absolutely won't if it really isn't advised!

I’m 25 weeks and used bottle fake tan yesterday, had checked and says can fake tan but no spray tans or sun beds.
I only use the cheap stuff, st moritz but then top up with the dove gradual tan to make it last.
I have in the past just used the gradual tan in the lead up to an event and it’s just as good x

Fake tan is fine, as you say, if you’re avoiding spray tan or aerosols 😊 do a patch test somewhere small first though, because your skin can be more sensitive so you want to check for reactions.

I’ve used Coco Eve throughout my pregnancy and been fine, but found others made me breakout 😊

i’ve been using garnier’s summer body hydrating gradual tan moisturiser recently, i’ve had really sensitive skin that’s been so itchy and this has been the only thing that’s calmed it

When should I give my little one Calpol before or after?

The doctors have told me to give it to him before and other people have told me to give it to him straight after as it could hide some of the symptoms.

Do your boobs ever feel sexy again?

I breastfeed and so obviously my baby is always touching, feeling, massaging, drinking, licking all over my boobs.

My partner then goes to touch them either looking for sexy time or during sexy time and I feel like he's doing a milk massage... It just feels bleghhhh

Does this ever go back to normal?

Silly question...

We are having a day out in London next weekend with our 6 month old...

What do we do regarding bottles? We use a rapidcool to make bottles on the go using the hot shot method. But we only have a flask that holds enough for 2 bottles of hot water.

Do we get a massive flask to take with us (will it keep hot enough?) Or is it normal to ask coffee shops/ restaurants for boiling water?
