I’m 28 weeks and I’m having difficulties breathing and eating properly from the bloating, skin stretch and baby moving.

Last night I woke up to go for the usual toilet trip and I started shivering and trembling violently for 8-10 minutes straight.

I woke up my husband and he called my doc, he said to check my temperature and I if don’t have fever or pain then I should rest and try to relax. He was very cool and I will visit him in a few days.

My theory for happening it’s because I was feeling cold without realising and I was hungry. When I started wearing clothes and managed my breath I finally relaxed. My baby after this incident continued doing a party swirls and kicks in my belly, so that’s good.

Question;
Has anyone experienced this kind of situation? sudden trembling for no apparent reason? I was feelings hungry, but the diaphragm fullness from the bloat kept me from eating.

Aloe Vera gel for stretch marks

I have been using in my face & body a pure aloe Vera gel to relieve from itchy belly skin, dry face from acne and body during pregnancy. I have asked my OB and he said aloe Vera is fine but on the internet it says it has salicylic acid which is a big no no even for skincare during pregnancy.

I have seen people using way worse skincare ingredients and makeup formulas, so is it bad continue using it? It gives me such a relief!

Has anyone using it pregnant?

I have been using in my face & body a pure aloe Vera gel to relieve from itchy belly skin, dry face from acne and body during my second trimester. I have asked my OB and he said aloe Vera is fine but on the internet it says it has salicylic acid which is a big no no even for skincare during pregnancy.

I have seen people using way worse skincare ingredients and makeup formulas, so is it bad continue using it? It gives me such a relief!

Lately I have been reading about the perks of both options since I changed my derm due to my upper lip melasma and I have been going back and forth which sunscreen formula to pick.

I really love chemical sunscreens because they don’t make me sweet or make me feel like wearing a heavy mask, but I have noticed medical articles about the dangers.

Physical sunscreens (derm told me) use nano physical oxides so it’s either way risky if it’s indeed the case going into the blood stream.

Anyways, is there any conclusion about this debate?
I’m thinking to buy the caudalie yellow sunscreen with the vinoperfect serum to ease my melasma.

Edit: wrong tag sorry

I used to be as a female a very romantic person, I used to get infatuated by reading love story novels, longing to see classical love movies and imagining in my mind or seeing in my dreams my dreamy person. Not to mention my romanticism used to be towards a wider variety of experiences like: art, seasons changing, etc.

After experiencing few toxic relationships and had many let downs in my current situation I kinda lost this ability nowadays. I understand imagination is very different from reality and maturity kicks in at some point in life but i no longer feel the need to find the romanticism around me. Don’t really care about all those things that used to fed my inner romantic self and life.

I have kept the ability to admire the rest of the things that inspire me but when it comes to love I don’t enjoy love stories, I find them silly, i can’t relate and in my personal life i feel jaded and numb. I find my self very stupid for even getting upset about love and the need of having a partner.

I was/am very selective with my partners and the truth is I had drawn really toxic people as partners but I never thought they have the this kind of power to destroy my romanticism towards relationships.

Has anyone felt this way or had this shift? If so, does it go away or you grow up with these numb self?

I have been suffering from upper lip melasma the last 3 years every summer. In winter it goes away but as soon as the summer comes even while wearing spf it comes back the same.

I have done all my exams, hormones checked etc and everything is fine, I cannot find the cause for it and it drives me crazy.

I don’t want to use heavy acids this current moment, is there any natural way that it helped you?
