Stretch Marks
I don't have any yet, but I am sure it will evenly happen. What do you girls use to avoid getting them or to help with them.
Thanks

Re: Stretch Marks
I've been using Body Butter by B&BW/Body Shop along with Queen Helene/Palmers Cocoa Body Butter 2x a day. I'm starting to really stretch now. Mom is loaded with stretchmarks from my brother and I. I haven't gotten any yet but I'm sure I will

Re: Stretch Marks
I did not get mine until about 37 weeks I think...they are contained below my belly button and they are more like stretch spots than lines...

Re: Stretch Marks
I'll take my LAST belly pic TODAY for you.
For most of my PG I did not use ANYTHING on my belly. Once it got cold and dry...I am now using Suave soothing care with aloe....just because, not to avoid stretch marks. I think it was the 2 lbs a week I've put on in the last 3 weeks that gave me stretch spots.
I still have to shower and eat, I'll post my pics later, with stretch marks and all

Re: Stretch Marks
palmers cocoa butter for stretch marks. walgreens has a generic brand that says on the back of the tube its made by palmers and its so much cheaper. I got a big tube for 2.99 and end up buying what ever they get in. I used it right after I get out of the shower as thats the best time to lock in moisture. I have no stretch marks on my stomach or thighs but was punished with them on my buttocks. Well the good thing is only my dh and I get to see that and once I lose the weight it wont be so prominant. ive read somewhere that its hereditary so if your mom had it your likely to. The creams are to help with elasticity and there are no creams out there that prevent.

Re: Stretch Marks
Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Creme and Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E. I don't particularly care for the smell of either but use anyway, can't hurt.
My mom and sister (3 kids each) never used anything on thier bellies and never got stretch marks so here's hoping

Re: Stretch Marks
I don't have any marks - just a belly. I would sporadically put on Mother's Blend.
I don't think the belly is baby related though.  I think my a55 has just reached full capacity.
