Brief Answer:
Treat the burned area as a wound and allow for healing!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about what transpired. My advise is to treat this as a wound and allow healing to set in. It will heal fully before delivery and therefor there os no risk to the pregnancy, delivery and baby. However, avoid similar exposure that can lead to more concerning circumstances. If possible, kindly upload an image for me to review as well. This way, a more personalized and helpful touch would be added to this response.

To upload an image, click on the upload icon to the right of your dashboard and follow the onscreen instructions. You may also send it directly to customer service at YYYY@YYYY and request that it should be uploaded to your query.

I hope to hear from you and promise to respond promptly. Until next, I wish you well.
