Question: Does anyone know the latest on hair color/dyeing/perms etc.? I asked my beautician and he said it was never true that hair products can cause harm to a pregnancy and that with advancements in the products over the past 10 years, they are even more safe. Anyone else have any input?
Also, on the sunbathing.... I did it during the last 3 months of my pregnancies and felt I accidentally did something right. In my area of the world (SE New Mexico) many of the babies born during that time had varying degrees of jondice (liver issue that causes the baby's skin to look yellow). The hospital would put the babies under a billiruben (spelled wrong) light for a time to make it go away (this light simulates the sun's rays). My babies were the only ones of all my friends having babies at the time that didn't need this. ??? I didn't put it together for several years and it is only my best guess, not scientifically proven. Anyway, just throwing it out there for discussion. Not sure if jondice is even an issue for babies today like it was 20 years ago, and it may have only been in my part of the world. ???
Note: sunbathing should be done in small increments of time - I never burned and did not get a leathery tan. Just a half hour on each side on the weekends. And no, in those days, I didn't use sunscreen. ???
