is it ok to......

get your nails done. Not jsut painted but with the acrylic/solar nails? Im 21 weeks pregnant and didnt know if the chemicals are ok to be around or what. What do you think?     TIA

Re: is it ok to......

  • The info my OB's office gave me says that it's fine as long as you are in a well-ventilated area.

  • It's fine as long as you're giving out back scratches afterward Smile my puppies LOVE me on the rare occasion I have acrylics.  As pp said, you're fine as long as it's well ventilated.  If you start to feel woozy at all just tell them you need a quick breath of fresh air and have them finish when you feel better, but hopefully it's very well ventilated and you won't have any problems.

    I don't know the answer to this question, but I loved Dani's response. I love me a good back scratch!!

  • I'd also try to go first-thing in the morning, before the fumes build up inside the shop.

  • I got my nails done before I became pregnant and I still get them done.  Just like people said.  Make sure that it is well ventilated.

    Right? I almost want to make my husband go get them, back scratches from him are just a tease!  He has hardly any nails at all...stupid mechanic farmer hands...grumble grumble. Stick out tongue
