vicks vapor rub

[dasart13]

So my sister bought me a whole bunch of stuff and one of the things was vicks vapor rub. Then my mom showed up with some meds for me, and she said she was going to buy me some VVR also but that it said to ask before use while pregnant. Well I had already put some on before I was told this.

Why would they may possibly not want you to use it? And since I already did, will it hurt anything?

True. I didn't think ab that. I had put some on my feet and a little dab under my nostrils bc they were all stuffed up. I was thinking more that they'd be worried ab the menthol in it starting labor

Well u can't just use anything on ur skin because some stuff have toxins n ur skin absorbs it n goes directly to the baby. That's how it harms the baby. But I doubt that anything will happen with one use now if u keep using something that says not to use if pregnant then it can harm the baby.
