Lotions?

Question

What lotions do you mommy’s use to prevent stretch marks? I’m already prone to stretch marks as it is but I want to postpone their arrival as long as I possibly can! Lol

Answer

Stretch marks are genetic I am afraid. You can lotion yourself up as much as you like, but you might still get them regardless. Staying well hydrated may help but again, no guarantee.

Answer

You might be surprised. My legs are covered in them from when I was younger and my mum has bad ones from her two pregnancies, so I thought I would get them bad. I had my first at 40+2 and not a stretch mark on me! I made sure I moisturised daily, but most of it is good luck!
