Since I found out i was pregnant I have had very dry lips.. I just keep up with the chapstick, and I drink plenty of water.  I think it's because I dont drink enough water and im dehydrated that my lips are like that, along with the COLD weather... Hope this helps.... Im 24 weeks along and still get dry lips from time to time and i realize its when i havent drank much water.

It's most likely caused from dehydration. Skin can do crazy things when you're pregnant-- think hormone imbalance. I went from being super dry to having acne and I know women who have done the opposite. The best thing to do is stay hydrated and keep some moisture on your lips and surrounding areas. Nivea has an excellent relief balm-- it's SOS relief balm-- that you can pick up at the drugstore for around $4. It doesn't look shiny so it shouldn't look bad applied to the area around your mouth.

Its more than likely caused by dehydration. Drink lots of water!
