tea tree oil in lotion
I am about 5 weeks pregnant and I picked up some new lotion last night. Malibu Golden Glow, or something like that. I used it last night and I love it, however, today I was reading the ingredients and I noticed that it has tea tree oil in it. I did a bit of research on the web and everything I'm finding says that there are not enough studies about TTO and pregnancy and it's best to just avoid it. I was wondering, though, is there really enough in the lotion to cause a problem? Should I just not use the lotion, return it?

It's better to be safe than sorry. I would just return it and get a natural lotion that doesn't contain any unknown ingredients.
