hey all you mummys! hope your ok? i am currently 11weeks, and thinking... maybe i should start using some cream on my tummy to try and prevent stretch marks. i was just wondering... which ones would you recomend to be the best in prevention???? i have a few at the moment from where i used to be bigger and i am worried that they might start stretching again... can anyone help please.... x x x x
I used palmers cocoa butter with both mine, but tbh I think if your gunna get them you'll get them cream or no cream
Im using bio oil in the morning and again at night. I used therapy bar from lush after Ive had a shower too
I bought a big thing of bio oil then discovered I couldn't stand the smell of it I've mostly used Mother and Baby balm from L'Occitane which is lovely and has no scent at all. I got Mothers Balm from Neal's Garden for my Christmas and it feels gorgeous! It smells a bit funny though so I use it on my tummy and the Occitane stuff on my breasts at night and I can't smell the stuff on my tummy because of my quilt But I've been really strange about scented stuff while pregnant.
I used bio oil and palmers cocoa butter and didn't get stretch marks on my tummy untill about the last week of my pregnancy and now strangely I seem to have got more on my tummy after giving birth.
I used the palmers one... I thought I had got away with them but since the birth I've noticed a hell of a lot I hadn't realised were there. Not on my belly as such, but everywhere else.
i religiously used palmers coco butter stretch mark cream and bio oil. i put it on in the morning and at night and even put the bio oil in my bath. i did well up until about 36 weeks with no stretch marks...but ended up coverd! i think id ur gunna get them ull get them unfortunatly
aloe vera and palmers BALM (in tub and green in colour). Both have been fab but i have tried clarins which was good, decelor, palmers coco butter, mothercare's and many more but found aloe evra and the balm the best.
I used bio oil all through my pregnancy and didn't get one on my tummy, back or bum.....which is quite amazing as I have old ones from when I was a teenager, so I was convinced i'd get them!
