How To Avoid Stretch Mark While Pregnant?

Question

I’m currently 10 weeks pregnant it’s my first time so I’m trying to avoid getting stretch mark as much as possible.. What are some things i could do to help me reduce/ avoid them ?

Answer

Have good genes. 
Thats it. Theyre genetic. You cant prevent them. No matter what you do or how expensive the fancy cream is, youll either or you wont.

Answer

Everyone says it’s genetic... my mom and sister both had awful stretch marks. I’m 35 weeks and haven’t had any yet (knock on wood) I was and am mentally prepared for them but I just drink a TON of water and I use belly oil by earth mama, very often.

Answer

As much as everyone’s right. They are genetic but you can still help your skin by moisturizing so they aren’t as visible. I’ve used bio oil since I found out I was pregnant. No stretch marks yet. But I’m 29 weeks. I know they typically come later. But start lathering up your skin now.

Answer

You can’t. You’ll get them if they get them. They are genetic.

Answer

Good luck🤣 but coco butter lotion and vitamin E oil helps.  You get stretch marks because your skin stretches too fast and you skin can’t keep up.

Answer

Genetics will play a huge role like everyone has said. But I’d definitely suggest staying hydrated by drinking lots of water, keep weight gain steady and within a healthy range, and lastly use whatever moisturizer you like on your belly/hips/back/boobs. Doing those thing could help from aggravating any stretch marks you may get.

Answer

I used belly butter u can get it off amazon and I used a coffee scrub 2 times a week! Also working out! But I started using as soon as I got pregnant and didn’t get any on my belly or hips.. only on my boobs bc they’re small and then got stretched:/ I’m pregnant with #2 so we’ll see what happens this time

Answer

You either get them or you wont. It's mostly about genetics. You can use lotions and belly oils bit they aren't guaranteed to work. I've never used anything on my belly and dont have stretch marks from any of my pregnancies. And I'm currently 31+3

Answer

You can, it’s genetic.
