Stretch marks....they happen but what is everyone using?!

Question

So this is my second pregnancy and I got pretty big in my last one and have no illusions that I will be smaller in this current pregnancy! 😂 So I got a few stretch marks even though I put lotion on every morning and night and I did my best to avoid itching! Now I was wondering what everyone else is using or has used in the past that works? Or please share things you feel didn’t work too!

Answer

I used this religiously with my first and didn’t get any stretch marks until like week 39 and it was a tiny unnoticeable area by my belly button. This time I haven’t used anything and got a stretch mark at 16 weeks lol. So I ran and grabbed some more. It doesn’t smell good but i like it!

Answer

Have any of you heard of using Rosehip Seed Oil or Evening primrose oil. I had two different podcast mention it as something that prevented stretch marks entirely. I have been using them but it’s my first and I’m only 16 weeks but I don’t have any stretch marks yet.

Answer

I cannot stand the smell of that thing. I used it in my first pregnancy and felt miserable every time applying it. This time, I’ll be using bio oil. Haven’t started using it yet though.

Answer

I used bio oil and the Burt’s Bees body butter together with my first pregnancy and didn’t get any stretch marks. I’ll be doing the same this time around!

Answer

I’m allergic to almond and coconut oil so I had to get the equate version of the palmer’s stretch mark skin softening oil it’s also cheaper because it’s does the same thing for stretch marks without the cost of the brand name and targeting pregnant mommies. You guys all know the amount of bs it is that some stretchy “running”pants are $5 at Walmart but as soon as you put maternity in front of it it jumps the price up because it’s “specialty” product....such bull. 🤬

Answer

I didnt use anything and never got stretch marks til 38 weeks. I'm thinking about trying something this time but I honestly dont know, seems like nothing will really prevent it.

Answer

I use Burt's Bees belly butter but that Burt's Bees oil mentioned previously looks really nice. I may have to try that too.

Answer

I used bio oil with my first and never had stretch marks.  Just apply it all over your belly every morning after you shower.

Answer

vitamin oil

Answer

I’m using raw coco butter once a day, and then vitamin E oil the other end of the day.
