Stretchmarks!!

[porkypig]

I know its shallow but im shitting myself about getting stretchmarks

However, i read that Elemis Japanese Camellia Oil is proven to prevent stretchmarks in pregnancy

I'll let you know the truth in around 14 months time

i used this and i must say, i havent got many strechies, just a few white ones around my belly button xx

don't forget about your butt! A couple of my friends ended up with strechmakrs there but no where else because they forgot to moisturize their cheeks!

My mom didn't get stretchmarks at all but I did. I gained about 30 lbs. during my pregnancy and didn't start to get these marks until I was about 35 weeks. Then they came all over my belly!! I used cocoa butter for stretch marks twice a day every day...but I don't think I drank a lot of water. My doctor was always on me about that. Thanks for the list...some new things to try next time!!

Apparently stretch marks are genetic so you'll either get them or you won't no matter what you do. Moisturising can help them to fade quicker. I didn't get any then a week after my baby was born I got a few !!!!

I asked my mum and grandma about this, and they both said they got varying degrees of stretchmarks. My mum said generally all over her boobs and thighs, and my grandma said all over her tummy, so I highly doubt ill be able to avoid it hehe.
