    Hi,

    I'm in my 4th month...

    Can i apply coconut oil - a mild massage and wash off with moong dal powder?
    Its winter time in US and my skin is becoming all scaly and dry.

    I was thinking coconut oil might be natural than the other lotions and may also help prevent stretch marks?

    Am i right in my thinking - is there anything wrong doing that?

    Did any of you followed it?

    Thanks

    Aleovera Gel or pure Petroleum jelly will smoothen the dried scaly skin as per my experience.
    for lips, best is pure ghee(its constant application enhances smoothness)
    Just immediately after bath, from forehead to the toes, the gel has to be applied quite liberally for a good result.

    Best wishes for a good caring.

    Happy Diwali to you and your family.
