HORRIBLE Stretch Marks. What can I do?

Question

Unfortunately stretch marks run in my family on both sides. I’ve always had very sensitive skin and got stretch marks during puberty and again in college when I lost weight. Now that I’m pregnant they just keep coming and coming. I have a fair skin tone so they are deep red/purple in color and I also got a pretty noticeable linea nigra. I apply lotion and cocoa butter every day and I’m moving on to coconut oil too. Any thing you did to help? Also how long did it take after baby to fade? I’m 33+2 weeks!

Answer

I use this and it’s AMAZING.

Answer

Stretch marks cant really be prevented but they can be helped after birth with certain lotions and oils to help with the elasticity of your skin from what my doctor has been telling me.

Answer

Castor oil or baby oil is lovely on the skin maybe put it in your bath water as well as rubbing it in. They will fade on there own eventually mine all went white and are barely visible xx

Answer

So I never got stretch marks when I was pregnant with my son but after he was born I got a single horrible stretch mark and applied bio oil which seemed to fade it a ton.

Answer

It will fade on its own but I use castor oil too
