Exposure to the sun during pregnancy: advice and risks

Sunbathing during pregnancy is possible, but you should take some precautions.

Beach, swimming pool, fine sand... Pregnant, even doing absolutely nothing is allowed! You have a vitamin D deficiency and it is important to let the sun's rays caress you. But respect a few rules to avoid the pregnancy mask and the linea nigra on your belly, due to the increase of hormonal secretions.

  • Be careful not to expose yourself between noon and 4 pm and wear a hat and a pareo.
  • Apply sunscreen protection 50 on your body every two hours.
  • Drink often to avoid dehydration

Don't worry, the baby is cool in the amniotic fluid and UV rays are not dangerous for him.

I am almost 6 months pregnant and my fiancé doesn’t really want me going outside but the sun helps with my mood and sleep I was wondering what temperature is too hot to be outside?

As long as you’re staying hydrated and taking breaks if it is like over 90, I think it’s ok to be outside.

This is my first as well. I've googled everything i could and still am coming across symptoms I didn't expect and things to come that just arent given as warnings like for example I learned on here that later in your pregnancy you will likely end up with a swollen and painful vagina. That kinda scared me lol
