Stretchmarks
I was wondering for those that got strechmarks, what months did you get them in? I have been using palmers cocoa butter since i found out but probably everyother day. Once I get into the 2nd Trimester it will be everyday and I think i am going to splash out on bio oil.
I think I will get strechmarks, i have silvers ones on hips from growing up.

I'm gonna use Cocoa Butter. Haven't started yet (want to wait until after 12 weeks to know all is ok) But I've read that there's really nothing you can do to stop them.
Just gatecrashing your forum. I had my LO 9 weeks ago. I also had a few silvery ones on my hips from growing up. I was really worried about getting them during pregnancy. As soon as i found out i was pg i started using clarins 'huille' tonic, at ??35 for a very small bottle it started proving quite expensive. I then used a tub of sanctuary mum to be butter before using bio oil. In the last few weeks i used palmers stretchmark cream and I NEVER got any stretchmarks at all. I like to think that all the money on the potions and lotions did have an effect but i think alot of it has alot to do with your make up and the elasticity of your skin. Theory says if your mum or siblings got them then theres a good chance you will to.
Good luck.x
I am covered from my first pregnancy but actually they aren't that bad anymore! This time I haven't got any new ones. I will use strivectin after have given birth this time like I did with my first very pricey but fab.
If you get them you get them, my mum had 3 of us and doesn't have any and neither does my grnadma it just depends on the elasticity of your skin. Do the bump mirror test I thought I didn't have any with my first till I looked closely with a mirror!!. Lots of tears at first but have leanrt to live with them and oh doesn't care!
