has anyone tried it and does it work?i've noticed a few stretch marks on my boobs (im 14+2) and have been massaging olive oil onto my skin before taking a bath and also putting baby bath in the water.don't like putting it on after cos its too greasy so was looking into some creams. i know they probably don't work but it will make me feel better knowing i've done the best i can to minimise them!!

I bought some when pg with ds, but my MW said the ingredients weren't suitable to use whilst pg.

I use a dry oil spray that isn't so greasy. Avent do one in the Mother-to-be range, and Body Shop also do them.

I don't think any of them would really help prevent stretch marks, but I completely understand what you mean about wanting to try!
