Ok so I am pregnant with #1, about 9 weeks or so according to Dr Google.

In a vain attempt to prevent stretch marks I have been lathering Bio Oil and Palmers cocoa butter (not together) all over my boobs, back, hips and tum for a while and wanted to see what others are using/have used in the past and most importantly if they are any good :)

I'm aware that regardless of what I smother myself in I may still end up with stretch marks - but at least I tried right???

Meant to add that my mother did not have stretch marks either, nor did my sisters.

Big rule Never Scratch........ apart from it at least 2 times a day Bio oil did good job

Dermelastic serum is great! I used it during pregnancy and am now using it post partum for stretch marks. The serum smells amazing and is very thick which I love. I am on my 2nd container now and will order another soon. I just love Dermelastic serum! I have also gotten my sister get some for herself during pregnancy now :)

Having our first baby and heard horrible stories of stretch marks. I started using dermalmd stretch mark serum as soon as I got my first one! It disappeared in days! I use the serum twice a day and it last about a month for me. So far I love it and am stretch mark free!!! :) I'm not too fond of the smell... but the smell doesn't last long and it is all natural ingredients.
