Bio Oil

[SSmiles]

Hi all
Does anyone know if it is 'safe' to use Bio Oil while pregnant? It has Vitamin A in it and I thought that Vitamin A is no good during pregnancy but perhaps that's only for things you eat??? Does anyone know?? Thanks in advance.

Hi, congratulations on your pregnancy!

I used Bio Oil during my first pregnancy with no troubles, I haven't during this one but not for any reason, I just haven't thought of it. HTH

I Love Bio Oil, I have practically been bathing in it for all of this pregancy. I started off using something else but it didn't do anything for my stretch marks, since I have been using the bio oil i have noticed a huge change in the appearance of the stretchies. Its even nice to use the residue from your hands to rub onto your face

It's excessive amounts of vitamin A that are the problem, I suspect you would have ingest an enormous amount of bio oil for it to be a problem!! Still chat to your doctor/midwife if you are concerned.

I used Bio Oil every day through my pregnancy, I only have one tiny stretch mark right down the bottom...! It's awesome stuff, I really don't think it would be a problem! My little girl is perfect!!

The smell of it gave me headaches almost instantly! It's got one strong perfume!
