did bio oil work for you?

So alot of people have told me that bio oil is very good for stretch marks, and I am wondering if any of you ladies used it and if it worked for you?

Get the bio oil. Use it from now until you have the baby and even afterwards if you'd like. I have them on my stomach and sides and they've gotten alot lighter than what they use to be (:

I know how you feel. I have a 3 yr old. And when I got pregnant with her I only weighed 93 pounds and I only got a few on my hips. But I am only 10 Weeks now and I am already showing and I am scared to death that I will get a ton of them.

I used/use bio oil.. It lightened them up but I wish they woukd go away :( I'm very self concious too. I would LOVE to go swimming or just sit in the sun and tan for a bit but I don't want anyone seeing my stretch marks.. Don't get me wrong, I love my son and I can't wait for him to be here but I miss my pre-pregnancy body ): FTM by the way, so I really wasn't expecting so many stretch marks or such a HUGE body change /:

I didn't, however it's worth noting that stretch marks are pretty much from genetics and very few things will stop them.
