Bio Oil for stretch marks/itching... I wish I heard of it sooner!
Hi!
I don't post on here often, but I am so grateful for all the useful advice I received while pg with DS, that I'd like to lend some. I highly recommend this stuff! It's a little pricey for how much you get, but I think it's worth every penny.
I am pregnant again, and only wished I'd seen this advice the first time around. When I was pg with DS I itched all the time and would have to sneak and apply tons of lotions/oils on my belly throughout the day at work (this was not easy to do, as I was teaching at the time!). Nothing really ever helped the itching. I also wound up riddled with stretch marks- I mean every square inch of my belly looks like a subway map. 
I discovered Bio Oil during this pregnancy, and as soon as I start to itch, I apply it, and I don't itch again until my next shower. I'm not saying that this would have prevented all my stretch marks the first time around, I know they're genetic, but I would have been a lot more comfortable had I known to use it. Also, who knows, maybe you're just not as itchy the second time around since your skin has already been through it?
I hope no one thinks I'm advertising for the company, I'm just a teacher-turned-SAHM trying to help anyone out there who's suffering from the dreadful itchy stretching belly, it wouldn't hurt to try it if you're as desperate as I was!
HTH!

I  Bio Oil! I have a system: In the shower (after the shower but still wet) I use Neutrogena Sesame Oil on my whole body. When I get out, I apply the Bio Oil to my belly, breasts, thighs and butt & I don't itch at all!

I didn't use it with DS#1 either and haven't yet purchased it now either but plan on going today. Go to their website and they have a list of where you can purchase it.
