Is It OK To Polish My Nails?

I've read a lot lately about nail polish and pregnancy and wondered what's all the talk about. Well, most articles I've come across is about dibutyl phthalate (DBP), a chemical found in most brands. Some experts believe that exposure could be harmful to your fetus, but there’s no evidence that the occasional man/pedi is unsafe. To be safe look for polish that doesn't include DBP, formaldehyde or toluene on the ingredient list. Here are a few lines of nail polish that I can recommend that are free of these chemicals. 




 
Zoya is free from harmful chemicals and a vegan line.


OPI and Sephora OPI  is also free from harsh chemicals.


Sally Hansen


Revlon 

Update on Baby Watch 2011

I'm 23.5 weeks now and it's been coming along good. I'm not as sick as I was before but still dealing with it here and there. I'm embracing my belly and baby is moving like a break dancer in there. We have found out the sex but only telling close family and friends until we announce to everyone soon on my new youtube vlog.

I've been getting ultrasounds every month and the last 2 times, baby doesn't want to cooperate with us and the tech. She has been face down across my belly and we've haven't gotten pictures to share with ya'll. (sad face) But as long as he/she is healthy and active that's all that matters.

Stay tuned for pictures of the nursery, baby hauls, and more of Baby Watch 2011.
