Might as well take the shirt off my back!!
Hello ladies
I have a wedding 3 weeks before my edd. In an attempt to divert from my size, I am having nails, hair etc done (who am I kidding?!) Anyway, now my sister tells me that she had to take all her polish off in hospital so they could monitor the colour under her fingernails (toenails included). Anyone know what thats all about? She had a section so maybe thats why?
Anyway, without sounding completely shallow, I am worried I am wasting my money by having a lovely set of acrylics put on, only to have them taken off a week later. Any thoughts?

Maybe you should speak to the hospital or your midwife and see what they say.
I hope everything goes well with the wedding anyway xxxxxx
However, you do realise that after 2-3 weeks you would need to go back to get them infilled?
Enjoy the wedding and I'm sure you'll look gorgeous!xx
Karen, yeah I know about the infills, I'm kidding myself that I'll have the time inclination and money to keep looking like a wag!!
Lo is transverse just now so there is quite a high possibility that I will have a section. However, my nail appointment next week is after my mw appointment so should have more of an idea and might be able just to get file and polish rather than the full set.

I am having an elective section and I havent heard about having to have my nails taken off! I have had them for years - am now having a mad attack that I will see what damage I have done to them over the years!!!! My best mate does them for me and I was planning a really lovely set - just to help me feel a little bit human!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH
I've had mine on ages always get them done that and my hair ... lol i know it sounds vain but they are my little treats and ive got soooo big during pregnancy it keeps me feel human even if i do waddle and walk lol x
Just a little plea though - make sure you get your nails taken off properly ladies - if they have been applied properly (i.e. nail beds not filed before application - they should just be buffed) and they're taken off properly (long soak in acetone) then your nails should be fine - make sure they are nourished with professional oils and strengthener applied by your technician before you leave the salon.
(I sound like a right do gooder don't I - if only I treated my own self as good as my clients LOL)xx
