Most mums I know switched to mineral sunscreen (zinc oxide or titanium dioxide) once they found out they were pregnant, because chemical filters like avobenzone and retinol-based ingredients are generally best avoided during pregnancy. My friend actually asked her gynae about past exposure before she knew she was pregnant, and the doctor said accidental use before knowing is very common and not something to panic over, but do switch now and flag it at your next appointment. Better to let your own doctor assess your specific situation, especially since you're already 20 weeks.
