palmers oil and pregnancy

[ttcanxiety]

Hello ladies with a wealth of knowledge, i am in love with palmers cocoa oil (smells heavenly and my legs arms and face are smooth and soft and yummy) i want to know if any one has used it on their growing bumps?

i emailed palmers to ask if it is safe and they replied "We always advise that you seek professional advice from your pharmacy or local GP on all product usage and ingredient queries during pregnancy." i am not going near y gp or pharmacy for a while. so i figured i would ask on here!!

thanks ladies

It's been a couple of years, so my memory's a bit fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure I used the Palmers Butter on my bump, and loved it, my tummy never felt so good. And no stretch marks either, although I think that was just dumb luck

They have to say to cover their rears.\

My Ob said it was okay to use in pregnancy but i got lazy and kept forgetting. no stretchmarks though.

I just got a goodie pack from my anti-natal clinic and in it was a sample of the palmers stuff and a money off voucher to purchase more. They surely wouldn't put that in there if it wasn't ok, so I think that it's fine!!

That is a strange reply from Palmers. They have pregnancy products and they market to pregnant women through things like the bounty bag. They have pregnancy massage lotions with a woman with a bump on the bottle! I'm sure it's fine.

Yep sure it's fine. I got some in bounty bag with DD so if it wasn't alright i guess they wouldn;t put it in there.
