how to prevent stretch marks!?!?

Question

I am absolutely terrified of getting more stretch marks than I already have! I wanted to know the best ways to prevent them! Because I've been exfoliating and putting on coconut oils and a body butter that has vitamin E oil, shea butter, etc and yet I'm still getting stretch marks

Answer

A lot of it is genetics. There's no way to really prevent them completely. Keep doing what you are doing though it can't hurt.

Answer

Keep in mind that exfoliating basically scratches the skin, which can cause more stretch marks. That's why they tell you not to scratch your belly while pregnant.

Answer

Tummy butter from palmers will help you !!! ❤

Answer

Genetics definitely plays a role. Been using creams and lotions early and still got them. Honestly at this point, 36 weeks, it's proof for me that I'm having a baby and I will welcome these marks staying after the pregnancy. I know society in the US has shamed imperfect bodies but you are bringing a life into this world, it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Answer

Stretch marks are mostly genetics. Just in case, I still use Palmer's cocoa butter for stretch marks and bio oil.
