Your Body

Now you will be the center of attention.

To prevent it, some women use moisturizing creams. Any way consult your specialist.

Tips:

If you try to go to the sauna and Jacuzzi, you can be relieved from the pain in your body, but do not spend much time there, or you may overheat your body, which can affect the baby's development. Avoid saunas and Jacuzzi which their temperatures remain a few degrees hotter than your own body. If you have any doubts ask your specialist.
