Ridiculously chapped lips
Help me! This has been going on for months but only intensified since getting pregnant. I have tried so many different types of chapsticks, lip balms, moisturizers, lip masks and treatments, and even some all natural methods, but nothing has helped. I literally have chunks of skin peeling off my lips. This has never happened to me before.
Stop using anything on them for a while- sounds odd I know- but I have a friend who had this problem literally tried everything, in the end the doctor advised to stop putting anything on them and it sorted the problem. Apparently if you use lip balm constantly you can cause this to happen.
I would highly recommend Aquaphor cream. Google it!! I have not found one bad review on it. It's amazing for dry / chapped / cracked skin and lips. My 10 week old had dry cheeks since 2 weeks of birth. Tried everything to get rid of it. Heard about this cream and it was gone in 2 days. His cheeks were bad too! I used it in my lips and overnight they were smooth like a babies bum!! Give it a try! I won't ever use anything else.
Penguin, that's genius! I didn't even think of that. I should still have some around here from DD. Might be expired but I don't even care at this point.
LOL PP! I believe it! I stopped using all Chapstick after I tried about 15 different kinds and nothing helped. Right now I am using Vaseline constantly, and while it relieves the pain, it's not taking care of the problem. I tried a natural remedy of pure honey, then you cover it up with Vaseline and let it sit for 15 minutes and that help for a day or so... But I already wasn't a fan of honey before and now being pregnant, it makes me gag.
I broke down at my moms house today ... because of the debt we owe and Passover is coming and it’s a very expensive holiday ... it was just way too much .... my mom i guess told my brother that I’m suffering and he called me over and asked me why i didn’t just ask for help, and offered to help when i need it . And gave me basically 4K to help for the month and if i need more to ask ... now one thing about me , is that i will suffer silently and won’t ask for help.... I’ve always been that way. ...
I just had my anatomy scan, they suspect that the baby has "cleft lip, unilateral". I have to go to a specialist next week for confirmation. Has any momma dealt with this?? I'm heart broken
Okay mommies my lips have been sooo chapped this pregnancy that they hurt an car max isn't helping me! what do you ladies recommend? cause my lips are looking gross an I hate that!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Thank you, ladies! This is all so helpful!
