So....got my first stretch mark yesterday and cried like a baby. I’ve been using oil and coco butter, but apparently not enough or not as often. Are stretch marks normal? And if not-how do I stop from getting more. I don’t really work out anymore and sit at a desk all day long 😓😭
It has a lot to do with your genetics. Some people are more susceptible to them. Hydration is the next big thing. Lots of water and oils/lotion.
It just depends on the elasticity in your skin.
Thank you ☺️I’ll just keep doing what I’ve been doing and the rest I can’t control.
@kirarocky55 I had stretch marks during and after pregnancy but used cocoa butter and now a year later, they're all gone.
Sometimes it doesn't matter how much cream or lotion you use, stretch marks are inevitable.
It’s completely normal! Your stomach and skin are legit being stretched thin lol and don’t itch them it’ll just make it worse rub lotion all day if you can
They’re normal in pregnancy as the belly stretches out, you can use oils to relieve the itching but once they come out they will stay there, my old ones stretched out longer with this pregnancy and i don’t notice until i had my daughter . Think of it as s reminder of this beautiful experience you’re going through.
Yes just dont scratch.....
