Best products for stretch marks in the postpartum period?

Hi, I recently gave birth to DC2. While I thought I’d escaped getting stretch marks, they came thick and fast in the last few weeks of of pregnancy.

While I know it’s unlikely that creams, etc. will make them disappear, I remain hopeful! 🤞🏼

Any ideas, wise Mumsnetters? x

You can try some nice massage oil but stretch marks will fade to fine silvery threads only. We embrace them as part of being a mum x

Thanks Expo. Don’t get me wrong, my babes are totally worth them! 😍

I've been using the boots scar cream and it's helped them fade quicker but nothing will get rid sadly.

Any skin oil with vitamin E.

I hada flurry appear at 35w 🙄 but faded fast with some pampering
