Pure coconut oil

[keli]

Trying to go as natural as i can, bought some pure coconut oil to use as a body moisturiser and was just wondering if this ok to use when pregnant? .. it does say check with doctor on back but doesn't everything! it's just pure unrefined coconut oil.. it gotta ok right? it supposed to be really good for stretch marks aswel.

Ive been using it too, and its safe as far as I know anyway!!! Its also FAB as a hair mask (takes a good shampoo or two to remove it all afterwards though!) and put a tiny blob in the bath with your normal bubble bath or whatever and it really moisturises your skin all over! :-D

I don't see why you can't use it, it's not like you are going to eat it. It should be fine

i use coconut oil (love the smell!) and did while pregnant too, i also ate coconut while pregnant, after confirming with nhs direct that it is not a nut (im not allowed nuts while PG or BFing coz my babys dad is allergic)
should be fine
