What do you use on your tummy to help prevent stretch marks?

Question

I'm using the Pregnacare stretch mark cream. Anyone using the same? Do you like it? I used Palmers  before but didn't like the smell.

Answer

Coconut oil works a treat and its cheap no marks and I'm 28 weeks

Answer

Palmers coco butter and olive oil. 4mcs, 3children no stretch marks but really I think it's down to genitics wether ppl get them or not

Answer

I am using bio oil and so far so good but then again I am only 26 weeks x

Answer

I use palmers, but then again I'm at 30 weeks and still no sign of stretch marks. I hear genetics do quite a lot so no matter how much you put on, if it's in your genes then there might not be much to do! I wish I had tiger stripes :(

Answer

You either get them or you don't,  it's all down to genetics. I'm 37 weeks and have 1 small one around where I had my belly pierced and I've hardly moisturised at all

Answer

I used bio oil and apart from linea nigra got no stretch marks. However I've read that it's genetic and none of the women in my family got any stretch marks when preg so maybe that had more to do with it

Answer

I use Shea butter, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil or even olive oil and alternate between them.

Answer

I used palmers and vitamin e oil

Answer

I got all the way to 36 weeks without any stretch marks then out of nowhere a few appeared between my bikini line and belly button. Have been creaming constantly with a clinique body butter. Think if it's gonna happen it's gonna happen. I'm just happy they are not everywhere!

Answer

I used Therapy from Lush, it helped lessen the look of the stretch marks I already had and keep at bay any others :) it's designed for pregnant women as it's got 3 dents and a bump on the bar meant to mean 1 in every 4 baby's have an outie! smell so nice too
