Best creams/oils for stretch mark prevention?

Question

I'm sure everyone uses different brands but I wanted to see what the most popular creams/oils are for your belly to help prevent stretch marks. I know genetics plays a huge role in who will develop stretch marks but creams or oils have to help if just a little, right?

Answer

I've been using burts bees mama bee belly butter and then apply burts bees mama bee vitemin E oil over that. I'm still not even showing so stretch marks would appear regaurdless but I'm hoping it does the job. I REALLY don't want stretch marks.

Answer

I used bio oil my first pregnancy and it worked Miracles so I'm going to use that one again and yes lots of water 😀

Answer

i used palmers cocoa butter and vitamin e oil two times a day on my belly when pregnant with my son,  and i still got a ton of "tiger stripes", I've learned to embrace them tho!  :-)

Answer

Thanks everyone. I don't know my biological mother or her family so I'm not sure what I'm at risk for or prone to from genetics.  drink over 100 oz of water a day, so I'm sure I'm pretty hydrated. 😊

Answer

I've been using Burt's Bees' Mama Bee Belly Butter. So far I've liked it, but I have no idea if it's the best ! It appears popular as my friend also coincidentally uses the same one.

Answer

I've started using coco butter stretch mark formula and it's good! only just started using it so don't know if it's worked or not but I like it so far 😉

Answer

I am very prone to stretch marks. I have them every where from growing/gaining weight. So, I totally expected to get them all over my belly with my first pregnancy. However, I used Bio Oil from the beginning of my second trimester until the end, and I was pleasantly surprised!! Not one stretch mark! So, it did wonders for me, and I hope to have the same results with my second pregnancy. 😁

Answer

The best way to hydrate your skin is from the inside out. Make sure to drink lots of water! Then for lotion I use Palmer's cocoa butter. It worked well for my first pregnancy I didn't get any marks at all so hopefully it will work again this time 😊

Answer

Palmer's cocoa butter lotion worked for my 1st pregnancy and I just added it to my shopping list because baby #2 is due 3/18!  🚼

Answer

Bio Oil!! The stuff is fantastic, even when you're not pregnant. Now that I'm pregnant, I've started using it all the time. It helps with the itchy boobs too!!! 😉
