Happy V Day Amy !

How come nobody seems to have stretch marks except me? Its my first baby and i've put about 10lbs on so far is that a lot? My stomach is just a disgusting mess of stretchmarks it depresses me so much everytime i look at it! They seem to have got worse over the past few days and i'm dreading what they will look like at 40 weeks!
I'm only 20 and i feel like my body has gone forever
Sorry for the rant, i know stretchmarks are nothing in the big scheme of things, and i should be grateful bubba is growing well, but i cant help hating them!! Does any of the creams etc. actually work? I tried a cheapo version of bio oil and it just made me itch like mad so i dont know what to try and if anything will work?

xx

 

[Mrs_N]

lilia, stretchmarks are mainly hereditary and depend on the make up of your skin. I've heard cocoa butter is meant to be good though, basically anything which keeps the skin supple. I prefer cream to oil personally. they will fade a lot, and with time you'll barely notice them as they go a very pale silvery white colour, rather than red or purple!

i got a coco butter moisturising stick from body shop, so far so good but i doubt ill not get them as my mum has them xx

 

[MrsJ08]

I have got some stretch marks. I had some before I was pregnant as I have a tendency to gain and lose weight regularly. I have tried Bio-oil - didn't work for me. Cocoa Butter, again didn't do anything apart from making my skin smooth. I then tried Mama Mio which is the one the celebs rave about - quite good smells lovely but again didn't make them fade. Then about three weeks ago my best-friend bought me some bath treats from Cowshed to celebrate being able to have a bath again (my boiler had been broken) It's the Cowshed Udderly Gorgeous Range - she bought me the Stretch Mark Cream https://www.madeformums.com/reviews...-udderly-gorgeous-stretch-mark-balm-/750.html Personally I like the smell of it and the texture. It does take a while to sink in so I tend to use it in the evening. It has faded my existing stretchmarks to a silver colour as Mrs N said and no new ones have arrived yet, so I would recommend it. It's expensive but you only need a little bit and it comes in a big pot.

Happy V Day Amy

This is my first baby and I have got stretch marks on my sides and have been using the new stretch mark cream from Avon its brill, i was using bio-oil which didnt work but this cream is great

 

[Pinky1974]

I have a lot of stretch marks too. This is my fourth child and I have tried everything during all the other pregnancies. Nothing did work for me. My kids joke that I look like a Zebra ;-)

 

[Teeny Weeny]

I'm afraid ladies you either get them or you don't! Its our skin make-up. Cream is great for keeping us moisturised, but it won't stop them...it definately helps with fading them though.
My mum had 5 children and has no stretchmarks and never used cream...unfortunatly I don't take after her. LOL

I have a few silvery ones from my first, and no doubt I will get some more this time round. They make us feel rubbish, but they do fade....you can only see mine again now that I am pregnant. xx

Hope you are all enjoying the sunshine. x

Hi Ladies!!

AMY: HAPPY V-DAY!!! YAY!!!! Keep hanging on hun!!!

Hope you Ladies have a great time at the baby show!

Lilia: I have gotten tons of stretch marks as well! I started getting them by 11-12 weeks because my bump popped so fast. And as the other ladies said...you get them or you don't. No amount of cream can prevent them...HOWEVER...I still rub bio oil, cocoa butter and whatever else I can get my hands on twice a day...just in case! lol Hopefully they will fade fast enough after our babies are here!!
