    It's a tough one but I avoided places like that when I was pregnant. I know you're feeling uneasy about it from what you've said so maybe give it a miss? Is there any way you could explain to them that you're in early pregnancy and get them to book you in for a couple of months time - or after a point where you might feel more comfortable?

    Plus, I found that even walking past those places triggered my morning sickness. I couldn't have sat in there for any length of time even if I'd wanted to

    I was uber cautious though, I am sure that there will be some ladies here who will reassure you that it's all good.

    I cancelled straight after I wrote this thread, I am just too uneasy about it.. I have another friend who is absolutely delighted to have scored herself a free pedi for tomorrow haha!

    Thanks for replying Sue! And yes would def also be a concern for the ms, even my favourite smells make me queasy right now, didn't even think how bad it would be in there, I wouldn't enjoy it either way so best to give it a miss. Thanks again! x

    No problems babe! It's sometimes good to just ask the questions hey? Can never be too careful

    For what it's worth, I had a pedicure in a really nice retreat salon (not one of the fumey ones) at the end of my pregnancy and I made it clear to them that I didn't want any oils etc burning and they were cool with it. It was sooooo relaxing having someone tend to my feet when I couldn't even put my own shoes on at that point
