No product will prevent stretch marks they are genetic I wouldn't waste money on products just keep the skin hydrated from itchiness

Answer

Answer

It's genetic there isn't a way to avoid them.

Answer

I successfully avoided stretchmarks by winning the genetic lottery and having elastic skin

Answer

Drink lots of water! I also used palmers raw Shea butter every night. 
I did wind up with some on my boobs and bum but it only got those after baby was born.

Answer

I only got stretch marks on my hips and a little on my thighs when I was pregnant with my first.. I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant with my second and I haven’t gotten a single one!! 
And the only thing I can think of that I did different was take more baths and exfoliated more and used bath bombs (dr said it was safe) 
But I also wonder if my body just doesn’t know where to add any? 😂 if that makes sense 
Like I’m already stretch marked out on my hips?! 😂😂 hahahaha

Answer

I’ve done everything including drinking so much water and moisturizing every day and I have tons 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

theyre genetic but bio oil helped me fade some of mine into a lighter color. i have some on my thighs and those are purple and the ones on my sides are white ish stretch marks that i helped with bio oil. bio oil helps fade but you will still have them

Answer

Genetics and not gaining too much weight

Answer

Exfoliate, hydrate and moisturize. 
I used bio oil and palmers coco butter but I pretty much kept my bump moisturized the entire 9 months. Even before it started developing I’d but lotion on and I never once scratched my bump. If it itched I’d put more lotion on and would just pat the area. I’d exfoliate every time I showered and use the bio oil. 
I didn’t get a single stretch mark. I have them all over my legs from puberty, so I know I’m not immune to them.
