Is it okay to be on the beach if I burn easily? 14w4d

Question

Hi ladies!
I’m 14w4d with my first, and there’s a company retreat next week that’s on the beach from 9AM-2PM in south Florida. 
I burn SO easily (and badly), even with sunscreen. Should I suck it up with a big hat and tons of sunscreen or take the day off?
Thanks

Answer

Yeah just keep somewhere for shade and put on sun screen. I’m german, pale and burn like a lobster 😂

Answer

Use a higher SPF (like 50-75) and apply like every hour to two hours. This will help. Also bring a big umbrella or sit in shade to avoid direct sunlight and you should be ok

Answer

Pregnancy makes your skin even more sensitive to the sun, so I’d buy a rash guard with long sleeves and wear a big hat with a physical sunscreen. I went to Hawaii for a week when I was pregnant and I didn’t get burned at all, even though I’m of Northern European decent (Mostly Norwegian and Dutch...very fair). I wore a bikini the whole time, but stayed in the shade whenever I was laying out and kept reapplying sunscreen whenever I got out of the water. I used Thinksport sunscreen for kids with an spf 50+

Answer

I burn so bad also, I had second degree burns once even while applying sun screen every hour. I’d wear a sun hat and high SPF sunscreen, and maybe find a shady area to relax at.

Answer

Use a high spf sunscreen, and just sit somewhere that’s more shaded (under a beach umbrella for example). And be sure to stay hydrated 😊

Answer

Alot of sunscreen

Answer

Use a super high SPF and I burn crazy easily too and the ONLY sunscreen that works for me has to contain the ingredient Titanium Dioxide. Everything else just doesn’t work
