I didn't do anything to prevent them. I would lotion every once in a while, but nothing more than I would do not pregnant. I didn't get any either! And then bam I start breast feeding and my boobs are covered in a day. You're lucky

yesss! most definitely☺ lol water is my go to for a lottt of stuff! headaches, constipation..etc. I feel like a lot of common problems can be solved by drinking enough water @maybaby2016

definitely not! water is so good for your skin, I'm sure it does help somewhat. hydration is so good for preventing long term wrinkles as well, even though it's just a small percentage and other skin care is definitely a contribution, drinking water plays a part in it too. 😊💦

even if lotions don't do much I definitely believe staying very hydrated makes a difference! couldn't hurt anyway lol @maybaby2016

my mom got them and I didn't, I'm 33 weeks with baby #4. My doctor says that it just depends on your skins elasticity and there really isn't much that you can do to prevent them. if you're going to get them, it's inevitable. I've never used anything specific to prevent stretch marks, just my regular lotion every now and then.

yes! definitely all those factors matter! No matter what I read said it was all genetics and nothing you do really matters but I was so determined to not get any so I really stressed taking good care of my body and it really works :) good for you though! that is definitely something to be proud of 😊 even if you can't prevent them 100% I still think you can prolong their appearance and severity you know? lol

I agree! my mom's are horrible but I have always been huge on lotion and I'm a huge water drinker so it wasn't much of a change for me. any time I'm itchy I lotion myself up like crazy..2nd baby at 35 weeks and I'm stretching pretty well! I think that it matters how you show too. I'm having another boy and look exactly the same so my body has already been stretched in the same manner. now vericose veins..I'm not so lucky lmao my legs look awful!!
