So I spent $40 on this cream and started using it at the beginning of my pregnancy. I lather my belly so well with it twice a day and here I am at 36 weeks and my belly is stretch mark free. But about a month ago I started noticing new stretch marks on my hips. I never applied the cream there before and am wondering if I would've, would I have these stretch marks now. Not sure if this stuff actually works or If I wasn't gonna get stretch marks on my stomach but on my hips even if I hadn't used it. It says it helps repair them as well, so if they start to fade then I'll know it works for sure. Smells really good though.

Stretch marks are actually hereditary so you don't actually have a say if you get them or not you have no choice unfortunately which really really sucks. 😩 I was said when I found that out.

@ayyeblackberry__, yes ^^^^^ stretch marks are 90% hereditary!

I've always heard that and my mom had five kids and never got a single stretch mark. So I had a pretty good feeling that I wouldn't get any, but wanted to use something just in case. @hamman13

@ayyeblackberry__, oh yeah it's always good to stay moisturizer anyway! Because I think some still has to do with how fast you gain weight and keeping your skin moist!

They're said to be hereditary BUT i also believe we are capable of lessening our chances of getting them or atleast keeping them to a minimum. If you really dont want them & just keep relying on them being entirely hereditary so you dont do nothing to try and prevent them, chances are you might get them. My mother has 5 children with not one stretchmark & my sister is covered in them. She has so many, its crazy. So i'm not sure how accurate the hereditary thing is but i'm sure if she would have taken care of her skin she probably would of had clear skin like my mothers or atleast had very little marks. I've been applying something like this as well, the MamaMio tummy butter and i've been staying as hydrated as possible & so far so good.
