Preventing Stretchmarks


{ Picture from www.weheartit.com }


I'm amazed with myself because I posted just a few days ago and I'm already posting again. I usually take a while to post again but I did tell you guys I would be writing about what I'm using to prevent stretchmarks. Again I repeat, I know I'm only seven weeks and a few days but I don't know when my belly will start to grow and so I rather take care of my belly skin faster. Now let me just say this, I DO HAVE STRETCHMARKS! I use to be ashamed of showing them but I'm now use to them and I really don't care to show them. When I was younger my mom took me to a dermatologist and she said I was prone to stretchmarks because my skin is really sensitive. I'm just trying to prevent them from appearing on my stomach. With that being said, this is what I use.


I first started using Indian Meadow Herbals: Belly and Vaginal Balm.
I actually really loved this one. I bought it at the Whole Foods Store. It doesn't really have a smell so that's good. The only down side to it is that it is very very small and it costs 15 dollars. It's very oily but it makes your skin feel and look very soft. This little jar lasted me three weeks and that's why I decided to get a different one. But if you're willing to spend that much money for something you're going to use for nine months then I say go for it.

Belli Pregnancy: Elasticity Belly Oil


This oil smells really strong, really, really strong. I bought it for 39 dollars at CVS so it's not something that would be so hard to find. This one also has a pump so I like that and when you put it on, your skin absorbs it very fast.

Using the products: I try to use the oils a few times a day to make sure my belly, breast, and thighs are well moisturized.

If you buy any of these or other products let me know how and what works for you. I'm always open to trying new ones. :)
