hi,
Looking for a natural belly balm, came across this one , anyone tried it?
I know there is no miracle cream but I really like (DH loves to watch) to pamper myself after bath.

I don't think anything works, however I did use E45 all the way through pregnancy and it was only until 40th week that a stretch mark appeared!!

I used bio oil throughout both my pregnancies, and didn't get any stretch marks at all. I also have a scar from an operation on my back, and the scar tissue really got itchy when my skin stretched, but the bio oil, softened the scar too, and some of it has actually disappeared.

iv'e heard about bio oil and it's amazing properties! Where can I get some of this stuff?

lloyds pharmacy, boots, superdrug, it comes in a white box with orange writing on it....

It does work, well it did for me, and my scar has really healed too, which is something, as I've had it since I was ten....

Be warned though, it is oil, but a little goes a long way, and it absorbs very fast into the ski....gawd I sound like they pay me dont I!!!
