Does anyone know if it is okay to use bug spray while pg?

I am going up to the cottage for the Canada Day Long weekend and I dont want to get carried off!

    I think DEET is considered bad, I'm going to lean on the cautious side and have purchased one of those clip on fans that are supposed to repel bugs.  Maybe if you are worried you could try that instead, have fun on your long weekend :)

    My SIL researched it and said it has to be all natural. I think she found the info on babycenter.com. She ordered natural stuff on Amazon.

    Don't know for sure if the fans are safe during pregnancy (I'm asuming they are) but I do know that they work great!  Plus you don't smell weird which is a definite bonus in my book!

    I've heard of several prego ladies using the Skin So Soft, that was popular years ago!  Good luck!
