sunburn??

Anyone else finding themselves getting sun burnt VERY quickly since being pregnant? I live in Maine and have only had a few opportunities to get our in the sun since getting pregnant and am finding seriously within 10 min I'm starting to get burnt when I've never had this issue before. I'm 36 weeks today. Wondering if just hormone change?! Or the vitamins?! Please tell me I'm not crazy lol

Yes! I even got burnt using sunscreen I had to get 100SPF, because I was still burning.

Yes. It happened to me with my last and this one as well. I live on cape cod and get the best color when I'm pregnant.  Careful for dehydration!  Double your water intake!!

Yes. Your skin is more sensitive when prego so U will burn much easier. Use lots of sunscreen 30spf or higher.
