I want to get my nails done...

After searching Google and asking people I have heard many things. I just want to go get a pedicure and maybe have an acrylic set put on. Any thoughts? I read most people don't go while pregnant only in the first trimester due to the chemical smell making them sick but haven't seen much else. Thank you ladies =]

    I go every 2 weeks. Get my hands and feet done. My Dr. Said it's fine. Enjoy.

    I have gotten many pedis since I've been pregnant and also get the gel color every once in a while. My doctor says go for it so I haven't thought twice!

    I have gel polish on my fingers, and during my First pregnancy I went in my last trimester for a pedicure every other week. It helped alleviate my leg cramping. Just make sure to keep all nail polish off fingers and toes a little bit before your due date, as they need to see your fingernail color in the hospital it helps them detect oxygen level.

    I'm getting both a gel mani/regular pedi tomorrow in anticipation of my baby shower on Saturday. I've been getting my nails done every 2-3 weeks for the past year or so.  Get yours done-it'll feel great.

    Just got a pedicure last week and I've had acrylic nails on that I get done every 3 weeks with no problem all through my first pregnancy and now through this one as well! Go enjoy yourself and relax momma!

    I just got a pedicure a few weeks ago and it was great! Especially since it's getting harder to reach my toes :-)

    If you are not comfortable try researching an all natural spa... I use one for my pedicures and I love that there are no odors or fumes... Plus all the lotions are homemade and use only natural ingredients.

    Do it. The girls doing the nails work throughout their pregnancies, fumes and all.

    I've gone twice during my pregnancy and this last time I passed out bc of the heat and fumes. If you start to feel bad make sure to walk out and get some air. It comes on super strong and will make you pass out within minutes of a bad feeling.
