Stretch marks have started and I already have a bottle at home. I am wondering if applying on belly is okay during pregnancy or should I avoid scented oils. What did others use?
Yaar, I totally panicked about this too in my first pregnancy! But yes, Bio-Oil is widely used and generally considered safe during pregnancy for stretch marks. Many women use it from the second trimester. Just patch test first to make sure you don't have any irritation. It's quite normal to use it.
Haha, Bio-Oil has been my best friend since the second trimester! My belly feels like a giant drum, so I'm slathering it on like there's no tomorrow. It's generally safe, just make sure to do a patch test first. Let's hope those stretch marks stay away, or at least lighten up a bit!
While many women use Bio-Oil for stretch marks during pregnancy, it's always safest to check with your gynac first, especially if you have sensitive skin or any allergies. They can confirm if it's suitable for your specific skin type and health condition. Don't rely on online advice for something you apply on your body.
Oh, I've been wondering this too! I'm in my second trimester and really want to prevent stretch marks, but I'm so scared to use anything not specifically approved. Has anyone's doctor actually recommended Bio-Oil, or do you just use it carefully? I'm so confused with all the different products out there.
