Re: Stretch Mark Creams
not to burst your bubble but in the end, you can't really escape the stretch marks. i only got a few towards the end but once i delivered, my whole stomach is a road map :(

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
My friend swears by Mothers Special Blend. She had two friends, one that had twins that used it and didnt get any stretch marks. I bought it and so far so good. Though I was told stretch marks are genetic. Its worth a try though, and its good for your skin no matter what!

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
I used Mustela and olive oil religiously!!!! 2 times a day and it totally worked, I forgot to put on my butt adn I got a couple there, so I know it works, my mom has major horrible marks but I thought I was destined to have, but I didn't get one single mark nothing!

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
Waste of money.
I used a bunch of different creams and my belly looked like the babies were trying to claw their way out.

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
I used Palmers strectch mark lotion and had not 1 stretch mark...but I have heard and do believe you cant prevent them. They are heritary. My gram and mom didnt have any..so Im assuming thats why I lucked out. But, cant hurt to try the palmers...

I have heard the same- just made me feel better to feel like I was trying to do something preventative

Bio Oil and Palmers
Same here I use the Palmers organic coca butter in the morning after I shower, and use the Bio Oil at night before I go to bed...so far nothing. Keeping up a exercise routine also helps.

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
it is mostly genetic, so there's only so much you can do about it...
but my sister, who had four children and not a single mark, swore by clarins huile tonic and made me get it.
two pregnancies/births later, i don't have any stretch marks either.
it's a little pricey, but one bottle will last you pretty much an entire pregnancy.
highly recommend it!

Re: Stretch Mark Creams
It's absoultely possible to not get one stretch mark! DS was 10 pounds and DD was 8 pounds and not ONE stretch mark anywhere! I used cocoa butter every morning and every night. I honestly don't believe there is a wonder cream, i think it depends on your skin.
