When to start applying bio oil?

Question

I'm 6 weeks along and was wondering I should start stretch mark prevention now with bio oil or wait till the second trimester like the instructions say?  And yes I understand they're genetic but I'm not going to sit around and not even try 😁

Answer

I always start as soon as I find out I'm pregnant. Prevention is better than cure.

Answer

Please don't use bio oil, it's really not good for you. 
Take flaxseed oil capsules with a lotion, you need to hydrate the inside of your body, not just the outside. 
That's what I did and didn't get any stretch marks

Answer

Start straight away i use bio oil every morning (should do every night as well but i cant stand going to bed slimey haha) after i shower.

Make sure you cover everywhere. I tend to do from above my knee all the way up to just above my boobs. A lot of people told me they used oil but just on their belly and ended up with stratech marks on their legs and boobs.

A good alternative is almond oil if you dont want to use boi oil :)

Oh doing this i tend to get through the biggest bottle of bio oil every 2 months ish. In the uk it costs around £13 a bottle but can get it cheaper

Answer

I'm using it anyway, especially on my boobs, booba have gone up a cup size and got some incredible shape and I'm 5 weeks

Also I want to start the habit now.
Great news they're genetic though

Answer

I used mama bee at my first trimester..then started using bio oil in my second

Answer

I used bio oil from the beginning just once a day after my shower and loved it. No stretch marks for me!

Answer

I found bio oil to be a bit pricey so after my first bottle I switched to a stretch mark cream.

Answer

Thinking ahead is good, I didn't start applying stretch mark cream until I was about 25 weeks smh lol.
