One thing that you maybe can do (discuss with your doctor first) is shower well at home (exfoliate exfoliate!!!) and go to a tanning salon to try a spray tan. Ask your doc first though I don't know that it's safe to breathe that in. But it's maybe a better suggestion than a bed that we already all KNOW is unsafe, even for just YOU.
If the doc says no spray tan either, then maybe you could get the salon to give you a really good fake bottle tan. There are good brands out there and they may charge you a nominal fee to apply it properly for you and get all the spots you may not be able to reach as your pregnancy progresses.

I haven't done it, but I have been told it's not safe once you hit a certain point. Have you been tanning since you got pregnant? If not, then why the sudden need to go tanning? You may still be at the point where it's safe, but the further you are along, the more unsafe it becomes.

Not recommended. If you can even find a place that allows you to do so, I would think it's pretty unhealthy. Your baby is already warm and snuggly inside of you. If you tan it may be too warm for baby. Besides, tanning gives people awful wrinkles over time, not to mention skin cancer. I'm pasty white and i'm o.k. with it.

It is unsafe to go tanning while pregnant. You should wait until after your baby is born to even think about it.
