Re: Strivectin-Does it really work
nothing prevents stretch marks, IMHO....it is genetic
I did not get ANY until I was 35 weeks, then I got a few

Re: Strivectin-Does it really work
Don't waster the money. I spent 130 bucks on a bottle, and it didn't do anything!
They eventually fade, I think the only way to get rid of them is to get them removed with a laser and that is

Re: Strivectin-Does it really work
I think strivectin is on the 'do not use while pregnant' list. I would double check before dropping that much $$$.

Re: Strivectin-Does it really work
I heard somewhere that drinking lots of water may minimize stretch mark development..... (not to mention that it's just a healthy practice overall...)
I'm only arming myself with baby bee's belly butter... and bracing myself for the outcome!

Re: Strivectin-Does it really work
There is no way I could possibly drink more H20 and I lubed up with cocoa butter and every other lotion out there daily b/c my mom and sis got them.
I saw my first ones are 35 weeks and they have spread like wildfire all over my hips and on the lower belly.
