It's been so sunny lately! This morning I was out at the playground with Charlie and the sun was in full force even though it wasn't even 10 am yet! He had on sunscreen, but I don't love it when he gets a lot of that level of sun exposure.
Not sure what we can do though, other than stay at home or wear big hats.
Do you ever worry about your LO getting too much sun? How do you manage it?

We mostly stay out of the sun. I take her to an indoor playground nowadays because the sun is so strong.

I always worry about sun. Sunscreen is always in the diaper bag. We went to the beach today and I made dh drag down this huge canopy for shade. And she always has a such hat on.

Yes we worry a lot. All my babies are fair skinned. We do sun screen and hats but sometimes we have to just stay in. We have had record breaking heat (100-110) for a week. When it's that bad we stay in.

Yep. We try to stay out of the sun.
I take LO on walks when it's over cast or the sun isn't very strong.
When we go swimming I try to keep her sun exposure to an hour max.

We live in FL do yes I worry about the sun but it's part of our lives. It's very healthy to be outside and get some vitamin D. We do use sunscreen and hats but as long as she's slathered up or it's just going to be a few minute (10 or less usually) then I don't worry about it too much

Yes. We spent a lot of time in the sun last summer and I always worried he would overheat and get super dark and get dry skin from all the sun exposure. So this summer we've mostly stayed indoors with some outdoor outings. Also, even if I grew up on an island, I'm not a fan of the sun. Maybe b/c I feel like my skin is so ruined by not using sunscreen growing up. It just wasn't a big thing back then. And now I have so many moles. Makes me worried... So if I know we're going to be out in the sun I'm lathering on sunscreen on everyone!
