Don't be so sensitive!

Sun sensitive that is! So I have learned the hard way that when you are pregnant the hormones can heighten your sensitivity to the sun.

Yesterday my Sister and I went to the pool for a few hours while my nephews swam and I put on my normal sunblock which isn't much on my legs really because they never get tan. I put 15 SPF on my shoulders and chest and 45 SPF on my face. I think I was outside for 4 hours.

When I came in to get cleaned up I had no idea how burnt I had gotten. My chest, shoulders, belly and legs were fried!! That isn't normal for me. So I looked it up and sure enough your more sensitive to sunlight during pregnancy. I didn't even think to ask. Well now I know!

I've been slathering on the creams and oils. Hopefully the burning goes away tomorrow. :(
