Any good stretchmark remedies you know of?!
Hi there - I'm writing a piece to go in Practical Parenting magazine about the remedies we all swear by during pregnancy to help our bodies retain (and regain!) their gorgeousness after the birth. If anyone has any tips/excellent product recommendations/remedies for the likes of stretchmarks, varicose veins, skin moisturisers, or any other tips you fancy sharing with PP readers, eg things that you used while pregnant (or are using still!) I'd love to hear back from you... I'll need to include a pic of you with your baby/babies if it goes in the magazine... just email me your contributions to sarah.hart1@mac.com. Thank you!!

i tried every cream under the sun when i was pregnant with my 1st, bio oil, coco butter every thing. i put it on twice a day, some times 3. i still got stretch marks! all over, down my legs. there bad!
want some advise? don't eat cake's all day, you will regret it, when your sitting there 4 stone heavyer and thinking you'll be able to lose it, your wrong. once that babys born and you see whats past that bump you'll feel pap.
i try so hard in this pregnancy not to eat rubbish all the time, it's so so so hard mind.
but not eating rubbish is what will help you in the end, you'll lose weight quicker, you won't stretch as much and you'll feel better.
Nicola, i think you are right! its all down to luck!!
I used oils and various creams with my daughter - and thought I'd been so lucky until two days after the birth my husband kindly pointed out a nice purple 'traintrack' running just above my bikini line!
