I had the best skin of my life while pregnant with her. With everything else she did to me, that was the least she could do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty/page/2#post-1157859 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 04:07:12 +0000 scotchbonnet 1157859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>True for me.Terrible rashes and acne. Still got acne all over my face. Skin around my face, hips, chest and butt got really dark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty/page/2#post-1125063 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 21:55:09 +0000 sarac 1125063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: Thanks. It totally was attitude. In real life I look like a totally normal person. But when I was pregnant I just had such amazing confidence and swagger that people were stopping me on the street to tell me how great I looked. It just goes to show that 'attractiveness' is mostly attitude. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty/page/2#post-1122918 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 08:37:28 +0000 wonderstruck 1122918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I had a boy and couldn't believe the way my skin started breaking out like crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty/page/2#post-1122805 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 07:36:24 +0000 bushelandapeck 1122805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not true for me. I had acne all over my face and back and we had a boy. I'm interested to see if it's different this time around! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty/page/2#post-1122783 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 07:15:14 +0000 Ree723 1122783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kimberlybee: Thanks!

How exciting!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122679 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 01:06:22 +0000 Ree723 1122679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No acne, normal thick hair, no crazy weight gain, and carried like a little beach ball with all the weight just in my tummy - and I had a girl! I wouldn't say I necessarily glowed, but I looked much like my normal self with a round little belly being the only thing different. This time, it's much the same and whilst we are Team Green again, I really feel as though this is another girl. Time will tell.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122670 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 00:22:12 +0000 HLK208 1122670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never, ever had a glow. Just a pudgy, washed out face the whole time with both B and E!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122647 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 23:25:13 +0000 Kimberlybee 1122647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: I've heard this before too but it wasn't true for me. I had great glowing skin, thicker hair (I think it was due to the prenatal vitamins), and overall a great pregnancy with no morning sickness. I kept on waiting for the morning sickness, looking for signs for it, but then got carpal tunnel during the 3rd trimester. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122641 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 23:13:37 +0000 Grace 1122641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had tons of acne with my daughter. I didn't realize how much until I saw how clear my skin got post partum. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122611 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 22:32:28 +0000 fairy 1122611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She made me super sick in the 1st tri, but I wouldn't say she say she stole my beauty. My skin cleared up and my hair was nice and thick lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122548 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 21:25:39 +0000 betsyboop 1122548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>100% true for me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122542 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 21:20:26 +0000 shopaholic 1122542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had acne while preggers. My hair didn't seem dull, but I definitely didn't have a glow either. Had a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122534 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 21:16:15 +0000 sarac 1122534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a slamming hottie while pregnant. It was 95% attitude - I just FELT beautiful, and it really came through. I also got lucky and didn't have many weight gain or skin issues. I had a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122325 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 18:45:53 +0000 Lindsay05 1122325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my DD i had bad skin. I was never told that I was glowing ever! We are team green again and so far skin has been normal and people have told me I look good so we will see lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122317 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 18:40:30 +0000 petunia354 1122317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. J: Can't wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122111 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:59:15 +0000 blackbird 1122111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to say no, because i didn't have acne...however, it's actually a YES. I came down with this really rare untreatable skin disorder during my entire pregnancy called CARP that covered my stomach and my armpits and chest and it was UGLY. Big dark patches all over my body. It was awful. And it went away when she was a couple of months old....I kept saying, "well, at least i can wear clothes to cover it up!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122092 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:50:23 +0000 Charm54 1122092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had zero acne and a baby girl. A lot of the old wives tales weren't true for us. We were TG and I was convinced we were having a boy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1122080 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:46:42 +0000 rachiecakes 1122080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: nope, I was beyond fugly with my beautiful boy. Gained half my body weight, hair was terrible, skin was blotchy, horrible pre-e swelling, carpal tunnel. There was no glow whatsoever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121986 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:00:57 +0000 Mrs. J 1121986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the "glow", but we're team green, so i don't know what we're having! 5.5 more weeks, and we'll see if the old wives tales are true! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121951 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 14:51:24 +0000 Vegmama 1121951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is one of the old wives tales that makes me think we're having a boy (my skin has never been better). BUT, every other one says girl, so we shall see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121653 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:54:28 +0000 Lyndzo 1121653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had a pretty great pregnancy also and I'm having a girl. My skin got a little worse in the beginning, but I already had acne to start. I used new products and it's cleared up. My hair's been pretty good, a lot thicker :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121592 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:33:57 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1121592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. @oliviaoblivia: Ditto. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121589 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:32:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1121589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a pretty fabulous pregnancy. Pretty skin, good hair, gained only in my belly and had a girl. Not true for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121524 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:11:14 +0000 MarieJ 1121524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the glow and had a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121468 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 11:52:48 +0000 Turd Ferguson 1121468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm about 34-35 weeks with a girl, and I'd say it's kind of been a throw-up. On one hand, I've had AWFUL chest/back acne that made a dermatologist cringe (sick), but on the other, my nails have been great and I've only gained a basketball-ish belly (for the most part!). Who knows?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/girls-steal-your-beauty#post-1121465 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 11:52:07 +0000 mrsjyw 1121465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i def had the 'glow' and had a boy! </p>
