lotions

I have a ton of lotions but I heard you can't use lotions that have certain somethings in it. What are those certain somethings?

So pretty much just use hypoallergenic lotions and free of chemicals?

It's probably best to avoid lotions with heavy fragrances. Try to use ones that are hypoallergenic, paraben free and all that good stuff. most likely if the scent of the lotion makes you turn your head, the baby won't like it either

Oh ok. All I know is that it has something to do with the acids they put in lotions but I don't know exactly which ones

Your skin is extra sensitive during pregnancy and some lotions, usually the scented ones, can burn and make you itch. But I've never heard of any of them being bad for the baby.

I want to know if it is safe to eat tuna.  This is baby number 4 for me but I avoided it with the other 2. But b4 I knew I was pregnant I bought some tuna and I don't want to waste it. But i don't want to put my baby at risk either

Oh ok. It's because I guess there's things in the lotions that can be bad for the baby
