I have the exact same problem as beauty12. I even went so much as to ask my doc about it. Since it's more cosmetic, he obviously wasn't too concerned, but I've yet to find anything that works other than maybe just having to wait til baby is here to get my old self back. I also have had problems with acne since getting pregnant. Prenatals, switching soaps/etc, healthy eating, none of it helps... just makes me more anxious for baby to get here!

Mine is growing like a weed THEN breaking off, haha. Do you take your prenatals? I found taking my prenatals and cutting my hair frequently, using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner really helps!
