In the last 3 week's I have painted my nails twice and both time's the day after painting them they immediately chipped or the polish came off the entire nail. I've never had this problem before, I wish I could get acrylics but I can't since I'm pregnant. If any of you have suggestions that would be awesome!

Are you using a base coat and a top coat?

Well when my sister was pregnant she used organic nail polish by lvx and it really works its a bit on the pricey side but I'd say it's worth it:) and this is what it looks like.

I was curious so I googled them, I'm really not into pay $18 for a bottle of nail polish, but I appreciate the suggestion.

Could you use a uv gel topcoat? I've never been pregnant myself, but I read somewhere gel is okay during pregnancy. You could just buy a clear uv gel coat (2$) a uv flashlight (3$), some gel cleanser to wipe excess gel off after uv drying (2$) and lint free wipes to do so (2$). Colors will last forever, same with the supplies.

Or what about nail stickers? I know sally hansons are ridiculously over priced and if you tried them, you might not have had great success...but I get these for about a dollar and they are great quality and last forever. if you're not in love with the designs let me know and ill send you links to the other ones I've used and had success with. they do take a little while to arrive in the mail, but its free shipping and worth the wait! hope this helps... http://www.ebay.com/itm/311592061930?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&var=610551221166&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT.
