Stretch marks

[Kt2108]

So .. 32 weeks and one appears. 34 weeks and there's about 6 under my bump.
Not bad I know and I'm being dramatic. And it's all worth it etc etc
I knew it was down to genetics really whether you got them no matter what lotions and potions you use!

But now they're here is there anything I can do to keep them to a minimum?
Still been using the oils etc
Or anything recommended for them once baby is here?
I reaaaally don't have the confidence to 'rock' a belly full of stretch marks. As pathetic as that sounds! 😞

Nothing you can do as far as I know. I was recommended Bio Oil to reduce the appearance but not convinced it’s made any difference.

Give it time. They fade.

Friend of mine had success with coconut oil though she had been using it through out pregnancy. I’m doing the same.

I use almond oil and came away pretty much unscathed during my last pregnancy (two tiny stretchmarks). I'm 29 weeks now and still stretchmark free to date. The oil stops my bump being itchy so I use it for that

Secret saviours belt but don’t bother with the creams.

I've been doing nothing and so far stretch mark free at 34+4. Hopefully I'll stay that way. I do know that pre pregnancy I didn't carry weight on my stomach and my bump is quite "neat" in the sense it's not particularly wide so it could be that I haven't stretched it much.

I've used various creams and oils etc all really well reviewed for keeping them to a minimum was just wondering if there was anything tried and tested for when they land! X
