pregnancy bodycare

Pregnancy is a unique time for your skin, not only do you have to deal with pregnacy hormones and the challenges they bring to your skin, you also need to care for your body which is changing rapidly.

Major areas of change for your body during pregnancy include:

•  
•  
•  
• Breasts and nipples - your breast tissue is developing in preparation for breastfeeding, your breasts are increasing in size and you will notice 
• your nipples and areola increasing in size
• Your abdomen is growing and the skin stretching as your baby grows
  
• You will be putting down fat stores on your hips, thighs and possibly buttocks as your body prepares for breastfeeding

This is all perfectly natural and normal as your body nourishes your baby on the inside and prepares to nourish your baby once it is born.

Combined with the unique pregnancy skin challenges mentioned above, you need to be very careful to only choose safe, natural bodycare during pregnancy.
