Pregnancy glow
👩Pregnancy glow
Your radiant, glowing appearance👩 these days is called pregnancy glow. Becoming a mom is not just about acne and pains, but it also gives you a flushed face and glowing skin. You’re glowing!🤰
👩When does it start and end?
There is no specific timeline for your beauty to glow.🤗 You may notice the radiance and flushed face more easily in the second trimester when all dull symptoms such as morning sickness has been alleviated.😃
The end of pregnancy is also the end of the pregnancy glow. After your baby is born👶, your hormones and blood flow go back to normal.
Causes of pregnancy glow
👩Surging hormones
Extra estrogen, progesterone, hCG hormones contribute to the glow. The increased amount might have made your face look glowy and shiny.☺️
👩Increased blood flow
Your blood volume🩸 increases by up to 50% to support your baby and other organs. More blood in circulation accentuates your beauty features and makes your skin look glowy and lively. A higher body temperature during pregnancy leads to flushing.🌡️
👩Oil production
The sebum glands produce more oil on your face, making it look shinier. However, sebum also contributes to acne on your skin.😉
Don't worry if you don't encounter this pregnancy glow since every pregnant body is different.😃 Pregnancy glow doesn't indicate anything about your pregnancy.🤰
