Hi
This sounds silly but I have been sitting in the sun reading this afternoon. I was wearing a black T Shirt which I wouldn't have thought I could have got sunburnt THROUGH. Have just looked in mirror and my tummy has got huge red blotchy things on it. I put bio oil on my tummy this morning so that wouldn't have helped. It doesn't look like normal sunburn but like a blotchy rash thing. Should I be worried or is it just a form of sunburn that will go down soon? Can it hurt the baby??? |

hi katie
i wouldn't worry, i get that all the time when i sit in the sun, especially when i wear black. it's just a heat rash and will go down once your skin cools  ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

I agree with jacks mum probably just heatrash or hives. I get hives when my shower is too hot or on really hot days, once you cool down they should go away. ------------- Abigail 06/01/2005 Jayden 21/11/2001 Micheal 03/04/1997 |

My tummy used to go red and splotchy from having a hot bath, so I guess the sun would have the same effect. It would settle after a few hours. I think the skin was just so stretched that it 'blotched' up more easily. -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Thanks heaps! It was a bit of a silly question.
I had a wee panic when I saw my bump covered in slotches!!! Was worried about cooking the baby!! It has gone down a bit now. Thanks for reassuring me.
