sun tanning?

I'm 23 weeks with my first baby girl. Is it okay to lay in the sun for a bit? On my tummy i lay pillows on my chest and thighs so my belly doesn't touch

You should lay on your sides. Not your stomach

I think it's ok. I mean you always see these tanned pregnant women that live around beaches..they had to get that tan someway.. I lay out every now and then, but I noticed that your skin is different while pregnant and you burn a lot easier. But I think laying out in moderation is ok. Just stay hydrated and use some sunscreen. (:
