[micci]

^Ganyan din OB ko,nung tinanong ko anong bawal eh wala daw except bawal ang contact,sa dami ng ipagbabawal yun pa?! LOL! Dito nalang sa GT ako nagbabasa ng mga bawal.

haha,natawa naman ako sis anyway nung 1st trimester ko bawal din kasi daw para kumapit ng mabuti si baby,hehe,ewan ko ba..though til now di pa namin natatanong ulit about dun pero deadma

yung 1st OB na pinuntahan ko as in cool lang,sabi nya wala naman bawal so far,hindi naman daw sakit ang pregnancy ek-ek..pero di ako convinced so i went to another one,ayun,chineck nya discharge ko & yung position ni baby..

mommies bawal ba magpafacial???

[switblububbles]

^ sis check mo yung ingredients. look for paraben, salicylic acid, tretinoin, retinol (or any form of retinoids), phthalates. proven na kasi yung mga ingredients na yan na unsafe for pregnant women.

i ditched creamsilk as my conditioner. may paraben pala yun. pati betadine feminine wash, di pala safe for baby kasi it can cause thyroid problems or goiter.

betadine sis? sure yun? kase simula ngkaitch ako due to pregnancy eto na ginamit ko kase nawawala itchiness down there... natakot tuloy akoooo

colgate kaya? sensodyne gamit ko...

[honey_iya]

^sensodyne din gamit ko kasi nagkaka-pimples ako kapag colgate.

[switblububbles]

^ako rin sis napansin ko nung una pinipimples yung baba ko kaya ngsensodyne ako...

pwede pa kaya gumamit ng perfume or hindi na rin?

[micci]

share ko lang,sabi nung dentist ko wag na din daw muna mag-mouthwash,warm water+salt na lang daw muna kasi meron daw ingredients ang mouthwash na naiiwan sa ilalim ng tongue natin,although yung ob ko wala naman sinabi about sa mouthwash

^sis,i guess pwede pa naman basta ok lang sa pang-amoy mo..nung ako kasi ang dami kong ayokong scents

[switblububbles]

^ayaw ko ng matapang sis...pero may nabasa kase ako na ingredients yung perfumes na masama sa lungs eh ...

[sabine54]

nag-stop ako gumamit ng Olay TE when I became pregnant. pati yung anti-wrinkle eye cream ko, stop muna. i used celeteque water-based moisturizer instead.

Olay Total Effects & Regenerist is safe even for pregnant women.  Called their consumer hotline before.  I used it throughout my entire pregnancy.

Parang hindi bawal ang parabens for pregnant women. Esp yung propylparabens na milder form. Even some processed foods has parabens. It's the gold standard in preserving cosmetic products. Kasi kaya nya maprevent ang super daming types ng bacteria na pwede magbreed sa products.

Madami nang nakitang "organic" or "all-natural" products na may microbial or bacterial growth.

Choose your poison na lang.

Google more about parabens, read from sites na may scientific basis, or those written by cosmetic chemists. Ang daming scare-mongerers ngayon para lang mabenta yung 'natural' product nila.

[switblububbles]

^diba sis kaya nga yung organics and naturals 6mos to 12mos lang ang expiry? kase wala silang parabens...

[rae]

^ True. Kaso yung news na nabasa ko sa sciencedaily, had microbial growth bago pa yung date na nakalagay sa expiry. I try to finish mine months before the expiry date lalo na kapag "organic" or basta nakalagay "sans parabens"

Some pa ng nakita are staph and e. coli.

I want to put it out there, na wag maging super confident na "safe" ang mga products that claim that they're "natural" or "organic"

[switblububbles]

^ay sad naman im cnverting to organic pa naman...pero im using them agad naman

mommies bawal ba magpafacial???

nag pa facial ako when I was 3 months pregnant. okay lang naman sabi ng OB ko wag lang maglagay ng kung ano ano pati yung laser hindi din pwede...nag pa prick lang ako kasi feeling ko ang dami ko ng blackheads

[eyndzel]

hi mga sis.. trying to conceive pa lang pero i've already bought skin products na according sa mga saleslady na nakausap ko.. ok for pregnant woman.. aalis kasi ako ng country probably before end of the month to be with my husband.. bumili na ako ng mga skin products na gamit ko since i have sensitive skin and sa vmv and bodyshop lang nawala pimples.. now ko lang nabasa thread na to and naloka ako sa binigay saken na toner sa vmv na alcohol-free daw so safe for pregnant woman.. nakita ko sa ingredients now lang, lahat ng paraben andun.. methylparaben, propylparaben, isobutylparaben.. waaaah. di ba ok if meron parabens talaga? 

for bodyshop, i bought extra virgin minerals cream compact foundation and loose powder, lip and cheek tint, lipstick and cocoa butter body butter for stretchmarks na sabi nila very effective daw.. wala nga lang ako makita na ingredients sa mga products.. sa mga gumagamit ng bodyshop, safe ba lahat ng products nila for pregnant woman? thanks mga sis.. really need to know kasi not sure if meron sa lugar na pupuntahan ko.. 1 year ako magstay dun and hoping din na magkababy na.. 

[rae]

^ Honestly, I'd still use products with parabens. Ang dami lang kasing scare mongerers ngayon.

I just discovered Palmolive Naturals Conditioners has retinyl palmitate. Derivative siya ng Vit.A which is a No-No for preggies. Pero yun Palmolive Shampoos, wala naman. Weird!

Kinabahan lang ako kasi I've been using Palmolive, pero usually shampoo lang. In the span of my 36weeks pregnancy, once lang yata ako nag palmolive conditioner. Nun nagpa-CAS ultrasound naman ako nun 28 weeks ako, normal naman daw si Baby.

It's just frustrating in my part na lahat ng creams, lotions, makeup, soap check ko.  Even that paraben stuff, inabangan ko sa ingredients. Tapos sa di ko pinapansin na Shampoo lang pala ako madadale.

[rae]

^ if you're buying products without parabens, check mo agad kung merong retinyl palmitate. Kasi isa yun sa mga preservatives that substitute parabens. Along with other preservatives like potassium sorbate, etc.

Usually preservatives are less than 1% of a product.

[mbarbi]

ok lang daw likas papaya sabi ng ob ko...

nabasa ko yung skincare ko na SK II safe din daw for pregnant so ok tipid ako...no need to change my skincare 

[p3ntium4]

mga sis anong lipstick gamit nyo? ngayon ko lang nalaman ang MAC lipstick may lead content matagal ko na tong gamit... ngayon tuloy binura ko ang lipstick ko bago ako kumain haha... kakapraning din minsan pag madaming alam na bawal...

[rae]

p3ntium4, if we are being overly conservative, avoid na lang natin ang lipstick altogether.

But a 6g sample lipstick contains only but a 0.000006 of a gram of lead.

0.2 is the danger level, which means you'd have to eat 33,000 lipsticks. Also, the form of lead in lipsticks doesn't get absorbed in the skin.

Fear will endanger us more than lead in lipstick will.
