Yes. Unfortunately it's happened to more than the stomach on me, it's anywhere your skin is pressed against the solar bed and sweating. But this can happen even without direct contact(ie) stand-up solar rooms. Fair complexion individuals are more prone to have this happen.
Limit your time in the bed, make sure the bed is wiped down with a damp cloth(even if it's sanitized...it could be a chemical reaction with it), change your tanning lotion, and don't shower 1/2 hr. after tanning. Much like the regular sun, it can seep into your skin and appear hours later.You may, even after all this, need to stop the tanning bed no matter how much you want to do it. Your body will actually thank you now...and years down the road.

Only if someone blows a load on my stomach before I go tanning. It must be the proteins reacting with the ultra-violet lights.

Sounds like you got burnt, kinnda the same thing as sun posioning, stay out of the tanning beds until it is healed, you'll just make it worse.

Yes - its called solar urticaria, which is a allergic reaction to sunlight.
