It's just hot wax on your feet for a few minutes. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paraffin-wax-during-pregnancy#post-481710 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:20:26 +0000 mrs. bird 481710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'd think as long as it's not too hot it wouldn't be a big deal. your skin might be a little bit more sensitive, but it's not like it is absorbed, it just coats your feet &amp; i don't think there's anything nasty in it. once i got a blistering burn on my foot from somewhere they had it too high, but if it's a place you've been before &amp; like, i wouldn't worry about it. i vote enjoy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paraffin-wax-during-pregnancy#post-481704 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:16:16 +0000 Foodnerd81 481704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never heard anything about the wax being a problem. I have heard you need to be careful about the foot massage. That's my favorite part but I'd be too paranoid to enjoy it, so I haven't had a pedicure at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paraffin-wax-during-pregnancy#post-481701 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:15:07 +0000 autumnlove 481701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm, I had one at 12 weeks of my last pregnancy! I would love to get one now! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paraffin-wax-during-pregnancy#post-481696 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:12:30 +0000 lawbee11 481696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am getting a pedicure tomorrow, and the nail place usually does paraffin wax on my feet (feels so good!!). I haven't gotten a pedicure since being pregnant, and I am currently 8w. Does anyone know if I should avoid the paraffin or if it's safe? I am pretty early on in the pregnancy--not sure if that makes a difference. Thanks! </p>
