I checked with my dermatologist and he said creams will not help much. If you are destined to get stretch marks you will get them! But creams do help with dry skin though.
I call them a badge of honor.......but then again I have tons! I used coco butter and still got them. My mom on the other hand doesnt have a single strech mark on her body, ugh, I hate her, lol:-)
there's really no way to prevent stretchmarks. you can use lotion but it may not work. I call it baby prints! :)
Unfortunately none of those will prevent stretch marks. They do, however, help deminish the appearance of them...over time. There is no way to actually prevent them. It all comes down to genes and even that is not a sure thing. My mom never got one mark, I lucked out till about week 35 and then I lost my luck. :( I didn't get too many but they are right up front so they look more pronounced. I used everything throughout my pregnancy, drank lots of water, ate well and exercised. Just keep your skin moist inside and out and cross your fingers. Best of luck to you. :)
Well I've heard that if your going to get them nothing really helps, but that said I used Palmers and didn't get a single one.
Good luck!
yes i heard that before tooo.... ANGELlahas2... my sister tried all them creams and never helped her one bit ... funny thing is my mom hd two pregnacy and she was HUGE and NOT ONE stretch mark LUCKKKKKY .... i gained some weight and started seeing stretch marks so ill be fortunate enough to have some :( ... much luck and meg2girls7 is right DRINK plenty of water...sending you so many bug hugs ..*:) erika
I hate to tell u all this! But if u r ment to have stretch marks u will get them! Cream may help a bit! But its not a promise!
I used Palmers and still got stretch marks but I gained 50 lbs (oops). I never thought of using Johnson's. For my second pregnancy I used Eucerine Calming Cream and I found that worked better since I didn't get any new marks. I've heard that if your mother didn't get them then you probably won't but that wasn't the case for me. Take care of yourself and drink lots of water. Good luck!
