stretch marks are genetic. My mum got them, my sister got them , i got them!!
I used mama mio stretch mark oil ( £25 a bottle) & palmers cocoa butter and im still covered in them from my boobs all the wat down to my knees

They do fade in time and will go to a silvery colour, but will never completely go!!
Excercise wont make them go but it will make you loose weight and make them fade quicker

Hi
I didn't get a single stretch mark and I used Palmers cocoa butter for during pregnancy (can't remember the official name!) twice a day. However I do think its genetic, because neither my Mum not my sister got any stretch marks either. I have heard that bio oil or the palmers scar serum is really good also.

I dont have any (as yet) Im 6 months pregnant so i suppose they could still come

I dont think you can get rid of them, they just fade.
Ive been using ponds cocoa butter dont know if it works or if ive just been lucky so far xxx

Did anyone get stretchmarks when pregnant?? Have you found a way of getting rid or making it look like they've gone?? Did you exercise to get your tummy back, did that get rid of them??








hi,as soon as i got pregnant i started using bio oil every day.i rubbed it into my tummy,legs and boobs,and i think that really helped.i know it works on some things as was hospitalised 4 time due to hyperemesis,and it got rid of the many I.V. scars i ended up with!i also used burt's bees mama bee belly butter from about 6 months(when i started to get a real bump)until my daughter was a few months old.i used it after every bath,and i really think combining the two worked.hope this helps!
