How to completely avoid stretch marks while pregnant?

Question

Is this possible? I know my skin is prone to stretch marks because I’ve at one point gained a ton of weight and lost it. I got a crazy amount of stretch marks from that. I’m only 14 weeks so I haven’t gotten any from this pregnancy but I’m trying to prep my body and avoid this before I get big enough for it to happen. Are there any creams I can use daily or even homemade stuff? I use the cocoa butter formula stuff but I’m afraid it just won’t be enough.

Answer

A lot of people will say it’s genetic, but it’s not. It has everything to do with your diet and nutrition, consuming large amounts of water, proper moisturizing. Both my mom and MIL had stretch marks with their children. Me and my SIL (she had twins!) were strict with our regimens of diet, water and moisturizing with coco butter and vitamin e oil and neither of us got any.

Answer

no its not possible. they're genetic. and since you alreay have them, it very likely you'll get them during pregnancy. mine didn't show up until 36 weeks. you can use bio oil that might lessen the severity bit there is no way to completely avoid them.

Answer

it's genetic how much your skin will stretch. there's no magic cream or anything like that. :( The creams will just help with itching and the healing. I'm 21 weeks and got the beginnings of them on my butt around 18 weeks I believe. none on my stomach yet. I get them fairly easily as well as I got them on my butt and thighs during puberty. they did fade to a light silverish color so blend pretty well once they heal.

Answer

all you can do to TRY and prevent them is lotion your belly everyday, and everytime your belly gets itchy, and also drink a lotttttt of water

Answer

I tried everything and still got them

Answer
