How do you prevent stretch marks during pregnancy?
Just entered my 5th month and my belly is starting to show properly now. My mom got a lot of stretch marks so im a bit worried i will too. What did you ladies use, pls share what actually worked.
Massage gently with any good oil daily and drink your water dear. And dont be upset if some appear, theyre a normal part of this journey. Be kind to your body.
Honestly genetics plays a big part, but keeping skin moisturized and hydrated helps minimize them. I oiled my belly daily and drank lots of water. You may not prevent them fully but you can keep skin supple.
You dont need pricey creams, plain coconut or almond oil works fine. I used kitchen coconut oil and stayed hydrated. Saved money and my marks stayed minimal.
I felt determined to avoid them so I massaged oil on my bump every night. I still got a few but they were light. Honestly it also depends on your skin type yaar.
