Fragrance Free Products to Use During Pregnancy

As much as we love to smell amazing, it’s time to put aside fragrances during pregnancy.

According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), personal care products may contain phthalates, linked to neuro-developmental conditions and to male reproductive problems. To avoid these potential issues, they recommend using fragrance-free rather than scented or unscented products, during pregnancy.

If you’re looking for pregnancy-safe and fragrance free products, here are some suggestions. They all get a safe rating from the Environmental Working Group (EWG). Plus, who needs perfumes when you’ve got that beautiful pregnancy glow, right?
