Recommend your fav stretch mark creme...
I'm a first time mom, and just curious what you recommend for creme for stretch marks. I've been trying to keep some sort of exercise routine up, to help keep the skin and muscles toned, but I'd also like to help prevent stretch marks using creme.
I've heard coco butter and plain ole vitamin E, also slathering your belly with vasaline
Any specific products you'd recommend?

Re: Recommend your fav stretch mark creme...
If you get stretch marks, the best cream to use after them is Mederma.
With my DD i got no stretch marks until 2 days before she was born and when she dropped, BAM there were the stretch marks, the Mederma did wonders.

Re: Recommend your fav stretch mark creme...
I swore by this stuff!!! My mom is loaded with stretchmarks from her 2 pregnancies, I have not one from either of mine. I truly believe it's because I was neurotic about applying products constantly.
Every morning after a shower while damp--load this on:
 or
Every night before bed spray down belly and cover:
 I used this one a few times with my last pregnancy and liked it as well...

I use tummy honey and palmers, love the smell of the tummy honey and how it doesn't absorb into the skin right away

I having been using this oil. I love the texture, it's very light and isn't too greasy. My belly isn't huge yet so I can't tell you how effective it is but so far so good

I am glad to hear this, just got a bottle today! I had all types of creams/lotions/oils when I was pregnant, none of them worked! F'ing stretch marks started showing up at 35 weeks, though now 3 weeks pp my belly is almost flat, I can't even look at myself in the mirror these days because the stretch marks

Re: Recommend your fav stretch mark creme...
my sister has been through 4 pregnancies without a single mark, and she swears by this product.
i used it the first time around and didn't get a single mark either... hoping for the same this time around!!
it's a little expensive, but a bottle will last you your whole pregnancy - a little goes a LONG way...

I'm on my third pregnancy and I am using Palmer's again with vitamin E. I lube up after my showers when my skin is still a little wet to get the best hydration.

Re: Recommend your fav stretch mark creme...
I have been using BIO OIL since I first found out I was pregnant. (knock on wood), I do not have one mark on my body. My mother has them and that's why I was concerned. It is expensive for a small bottle ($11.00) - but worth every penny. And besides, it smells so good!!
