Summer is in full swing! While the beach might be calling you with neon signs, it is important to keep in mind some important points to take care of yourself and your baby -

Though we need the sun to get Vitamin D, it is a good idea to optimize the exposure to the sun. It is best to avoid going out in the sun between 10am to 4pm.

Increase in your body temperature could lead to dehydration, and also affect the fetus.

Prolonged exposure to the sun can lead to sunburn, and increase your chances of developing cancer.

While tanning beds might be a great alternative to get a gorgeous tan, they still carry some of the risks of sun related exposure. Restricted use of tanning lotions is advised.

Important points to remember –

   Keep drinking fluids !

   Wear comfortable clothes which cover the body

   Avoid mid day activities

   Use sunscreens that are approved, and regularly through the day

   Visit your Gynaecologist for more specific advice and about Vitamin D supplements
