What oils to use for stretch marks?

Question

Hi,
I am 4 weeks and 5 days pregnant to my first baby. Can anyone recommend any oils/creams to use to avoid stretch marks in the future?

Answer

Burts bees mama bee belly butter works wonders

Answer

Thank you everyone for your thoughtful comments :)

Answer

Rosehip seed oil is amazing!! You can use it all over and it’s even good for breakouts if you’ve had any.

Answer

Unfortunately, creams/oils won’t prevent anything. It just happens or doesn’t happen. I used oil and cream multiple times a day during my first pregnancy and still got stretch marks basically everywhere.

Answer

Try BioOil from Walmart or Walgreens, or almond oil. I got a few with my first pregnancy but can’t see them!

Answer

Weleda Pregnancy Oil and Burts Bees Mama something something Belly cream (I can’t remember the name). 🤦🏻‍♀️ My friend who is prone to stretch marks used both and didn’t get any during pregnancy. That’s what I used for my first and didn’t get any either. But like others have said there’s no guarantee.

Answer

Unfortunately no way to prevent them. I used bio oil religiously every day with my 1st pregnancy and only gained 18 pounds... had one of the nurses tell me I had some of the worst stretch marks she had ever seen. My mom didn’t get them either so I thought I’d be in the clear...... nope.

Answer

I just used vitamin e baby oil

Answer

There is no way to prevent stretch marks you'll either get them or not. It's genetics. I got no stretch marks both pregnancies and didn't use oils or creams  
Tho many said oils and creams can relieve the itch that some experience from stretch marks

Answer

I read that oils penetrate deep under the skin and lotions just linger over the skin so I recommend looking for a good oil for you I am currently using bio oil morning and night and coconut oil for mid day
