Oh no......I've got stretch marks......

[NIE]

I've just noticed that I have started to get horrible red stretch marks on my body. The funny thing is, that they are are not on my breasts, stomach or hips. They are on the inside of my thighs.

Has anyone else got stretch marks and where do you have them. xxx

Oh, NIE! The answer is Yes--all over...my boobs, tummy, hips, inside thigh and my BUM! The good news is, they do fade. A few months after your baby is born, they'll fade to an almost silvery colour. Yours are probably very painful right now, so keep rubbing on that cocoa butter or bio oil. The ones on my tummy were the most painful, and I've noticed that now, with baby #2 I'm getting MORE on my tummy, but higher up this time!

I have avoided them so far. Not been putting oil on my thighs though. Why can't i just be dipped from head to toe in teh stuff every morning and night

I have been puting the bio oil on my tummy and breasts every evening and haven't bothered with my thighs. Looks like I'll have to start shopping for bigger bottles of the stuff to plaster on my legs. xxxx

 

[Full of hope!]

I'm only 15 weeks and the old ones on my tummy (which I had from when I was fat!) are starting to turn pink again I was thinking about getting some Bio Oil but wasn't sure if it was a waste of money What do you guys who use it think?

iv started to get some too, well have been for a while but much more noticeable they are slightly on my legs but mainly round my stomach.

I'm too scared to stop using it now, as where I have been using it I don't have any stretch marks.

It is quite expensive but a little does go a long way.

Some people swear by regular moisturising with their usual lotion as it's a lot cheaper and has the same results. xxx

Have got away with it so far this time but got them on boobs, bum and thighs with first baby!! They have faded away and I am not that bothered about them. Plenty of people who haven't had babies get them too! My sister had some on her thighs and she hasn't had any kids. Her boyfriend used to call her lightning legs the cheeky swine!
