Bought a stretch mark cream already but not sure if i should start now or wait till bump shows more. Im around 12 weeks. When did u all begin applying?
My app reminded me to start oiling around 12-14 weeks and i kept it up morning and night. I used a simple cream plus coconut oil. Genetics plays a role too but staying moisturised definitely helped my skin feel less itchy.
Start slathering early yaar, treat your belly like a samosa being basted haha. Honestly some marks come no matter what, they are battle stripes. But moisturising keeps the itch away which is reason enough.
Start early, dont wait for the marks to appear. I began around the second trimester when the bump started growing and kept the skin moisturised twice a day. Consistency matters more than the brand honestly.
