NR For Deodorant

This may seem silly, but does anyone have a good recommendation for a deodorant? I am 5 months pregnant and I usually use the Trader Joes brand with no problem. It's only a deodorant (not anti-persperant) and unscented. Well, the pregnancy hormones have kicked in and I need something a little stronger. :)

What can I do next?

OK I have a feeling I know why you specified deodorant only. Try your local healthfood stores... In San Diego we have Henry's and Jimbo's and up in the LA area there is Whole Foods, Wild Oats and Sprouts. They have several. I liked Tom's and Alba Botanica. I did NOT like the crystal stick.. might as well have gotten a rock and rubbed it under my arm. Did not work! None of those have aluminum in them which has been proven to cause issues with breast cancer and can be transmitted to the baby during breastfeeding.

I suggest an antipersperant as opposed to a deodorant. Just my personal choice. I use DOVE brand powder scent.

I use deodorant from Neways Int. a 20 year old safe and healthy product manufacturer. It has no harmful ingredients, no propylene glycol, nothing irritating, and works well.
www.ineways.com/positivehealthyliving its called Subdue and costs $6.90. I have been using it for 10 years.
Also regular baking soda works well also.

Try "Secret- Clinical strength."
This happened to me too, and still even after I had my baby.
It' works better.

Good luck,
