Hi guys! I've noticed my nails are super strong! Usually they're very flimsy and I have to keep them cut short because they snap.. But I haven't cut them in a few weeks and they've grown a bit and they are sooo strong its amazing! Have you foubd pregnancy has made your nails stronger? Would you say its a symptom?

Yup. Lucky you, It’s a well known symptom, you may find your hair is fuller and more lovely as well if you’ve had an improvement in your nails. I didn’t get either sadly

@lymphy I hope my hair doesn't get any thicker 😬 I've already got too much! 😂

My nails and eyelashes are growing faster - I have shellac nails so I can tell when the gel bit is growing out faster and likewise with my eyelashes as I have extensions - nice perk to what hasn’t been a nice pregnancy 😂
