A member asked:

32 weeks pregnant, i fell asleep with make up on! did some googling & it said it can harm the baby! is this true ?!!!:( so worried!!!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Sleeping in your make up may not be good for your complexion but it won't hurt your baby any more than wearing it during the day. Your concern tells me how lucky this baby is and what a good mom you will be. Best wishes to you both.
