My back and legs have started aching and i feel like a gentle massage would help so much. There are so many oils out there i dont know which one is actually good and safe to use on the belly area also. What did u all use?
Beta, in our home we always used coconut oil or almond oil for gentle belly and back massage, it keeps the skin soft. Just keep it light and avoid pressing the tummy hard. If you have any concerns, ask your doctor before strong massages.
My family swears by coconut oil and even sesame oil for gentle massage. It felt very calming and warm during pregnancy. Just keep the strokes soft on the belly, and I always checked with my doctor for anything more.
I used coconut oil daily on my belly and I felt it really helped with the itching and dryness. It was so soothing in the evenings. My skin stayed soft and I avoided bad stretch marks too.
