They both burn. We've been able to protect their skin well so far but I worry about when they are more independent or fashion conscious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735266 Fri, 12 May 2017 10:20:56 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2735266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD definitely inherited my fair skin. If I go out in the sun for ten minutes I'll definitely get burned. She's the same! I have to be super vigilant with sunscreen because she just burns so quickly! I'm always on the lookout for lightweight long sleeved shirts for summer (we're in CA so summers can be brutal, like over 100 degrees). If I'm not super vigilant I end up freckled and peeling all summer. And I'm half Asian and the only one of my siblings not to inherit my father's Asian skin. </p> <p>It's frustrating because we both have dark hair so people have always doubted that we are as fair as we are! All her cousins are blondes with blue eyes and they get way more tan than my daughter can. </p> <p>I'm super strict with sunscreen because I have vivid memories of getting 1-2 bad burns every summer in spite of applying sunscreen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735242 Fri, 12 May 2017 09:52:35 +0000 skinnycow 2735242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure yet because we've been vigilant about putting sunscreen on her. She's very fair skinned (as are DH and I) but DH burns and I tan. Could go either way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735230 Fri, 12 May 2017 09:38:40 +0000 snowjewelz 2735230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tan! She's already tanned from the few warm days we've had! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735193 Fri, 12 May 2017 09:01:52 +0000 Adira 2735193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my kids are very fair-skinned, so I assume they would burn, but we're really rigorous with the sunscreen, so we haven't had to deal with any burns yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735173 Fri, 12 May 2017 08:34:13 +0000 avivoca 2735173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO1 tans, she has my olive skin.

I keep her covered (with long sleeves, hats, sunscreen) so I've never seen a change in her skin color yet from the sun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735152 Fri, 12 May 2017 08:20:23 +0000 Mamaof2 2735152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They both tan but DS tans dark like me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2735126 Fri, 12 May 2017 07:46:02 +0000 mediagirl 2735126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: ha ha ha - that's what my husband says, too.

I burn and it sucks. Lo2 has extremely fair skin, like almost translucent, and I think she's going to burn like me-- I'm nervous about this summer since she's too young for sunscreen! When lo1 was a baby I think I kept her inside or in her stroller shaded most of her first summer, but w a toddler we're out and about so much more </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2734951 Thu, 11 May 2017 20:26:43 +0000 Anagram 2734951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids both tan, since they are half south Asian. They get SUPER brown in summer, even though I put on sunscreen daily. I burn really easily, though. Like--10 minutes in full sun and I'm burned. And then it doesn't turn into a nice tan, I just peel and freckle and it's all awful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2734950 Thu, 11 May 2017 20:26:29 +0000 MamaG 2734950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They got my olive skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-tan-or-burn#post-2734949 Thu, 11 May 2017 20:26:17 +0000 yin 2734949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tan!

She obviously got her daddy's skin tone because I tan pretty easily. She burns and just burns. We have to be soooo diligent with sunscreen!</p> <p>Does your LO tan or burn? </p>
