How to prevent Stretchmarks??

[youareaschizoe]

^true, same tayo nasa genes ko rin... moisturizing the skin really helps kasi yung dryness ang nakakapag-pakati ng skin, i remember nung buntis pa ako, halos ipaligo ko na yung lotion para lang mag-dry ang skin ko, pero sobrang kati talaga.

suwerte ng iba na maganda ang genes when it comes to skin talaga.

I agree with you sis, it's so itchy due to dryness. Yun prob ko now that I'm preggy with my second baby, super dry. Kaya I always put lotion or oil to moisturize.

One cannot really prevent having stretchmarks lalo na when it's in your genes.

wala ako nakita na nivea cocoa butter..nabili ni hubby is yung sa vaselline..sana mag effect pa sa akin..ang sarap ipahid, ang bango..sana mag fade pa mga stretchmarks ko sa tyan ko..    

[bluish_mommy]

^^whoa! sarap kamutin di ba? I remember nung buntis pa ako, nagsusuot ako ng malinis na socks (as mittens) kasi talagang hindi ko matiis kamutin habang natutulog ako grabe ang sarap kamutin! hahaha!

Has anyone tried glyderm to reduce the appearance of stretch marks? I bought one at mercury and hopefully in 2 months eh mag fade na sya..

I'm already 27 weeks and so far (and I hope it stays that way), The Body Shop's Cocoa Butter Stick works for me. I also use Dove soap pag naliligo ako for added moisture.

Yehey, my hubby bought me Palmers Massage cream for stretchmarks. Okay na ba ito sis? Matry ko nga!

[chubbycheeks]

So far, no stretchmarks yet at 24 weeks. Pero i think too early pa? Im rubbing mustela ultimate hydration lotion sa tummy and lower back ko. Hindi pa toh yun for stretchmarks, inuubos ko lang coz i bought this at 10 weeks i think. Matagal maubos kasi i don't use it for the whole body since mejo thick sya.

Hi pa join mga sissies at 32 weeks no stretch marks sightings yet at first I was warned by my OB kasi slim so prone to stretch marks I used Bio oil and Argan Oil sabi nga friend ko minis ng tummy ko sana until due date gain to [textspeak!] hehe

[silvermist07]

I'm on my way to 37th week this friday. No stretch marks so far.. since kc I knew that I was pregnant nagpahid ako Argan oil yung sa bench. Sabi din ng mga sisters ko buti daw wala pa ko stretch marks. Hoping na until lumabas si baby e wala maging marks. hehe..

[coffeejelly]

@silvermist same tayo argon oil

[michichar]

silvermist07 and coffeejelly, ang saya! ako nung 35th week ko nagkaron na eh. sa lower part ng abdomen. hinde ko kita but nakita ni hubby. I use yung lotion na palmers. Now, yung oil na may rosehip. San ba nakakabili ng argan oil? will try nga yan baka mawala hehe

[Ma. Regina]

Silvermist07 ang swerte mo naman, ako nung una wala talagang stretchmarks pero when noong late part ng 7th month ko nagappear na sila. 😳 saaaad! Pero sabi naman ng mom ko, alagaan sa lotion after mawawala din ang mga stretchmarks.

[silvermist07]

@ sis coffeejelly hubby and I are already using it prior pa ko magconceive kasi nga ang nipis lang niya sa body pag inapply mo kaya hindi mainit.

@ sis michichar ah talaga! ako so far wala pa talaga. I took a pic of my tummy and pinacheck ko din kay hubby luckily wala pa. Hoping wala talaga siya after ko magdeliver. Sa bench yun sis sa mga organics product nila.

@ sis Ma. Regina thanks sis! Hoping na wala talaga siya kahit after delivery. Hehe..

[stacies83221]

How about post delivery mga sisses, do you still apply moisturizers on your bellies? I am still using loccitanes almond supple skin oil. I didnt get stretchmarks when i was pregnant, but i think our skin still need the same treatment to help it return to its prepregnancy state.

[coffeejelly]

Yes even post pregnancy sabi ni OB moisturizer is recommended pa din...effective Argan oil [textspeak!]

[michichar]

Thanks silvermist07. makabili nga niyan sa sunday. Ayan, nadagdagan nnaman ang stretchmarks ko. umakyat na sa right side ng tummy ko. shocked ako pagshower ko kanina. Im hoping that mawala sha after manganak or maglighten man lang ng bongga. hehe Will continue to apply moisturizers such as lotion and oil na lang.

[Jaguar.Paw]

tulad nga ng sabi ni OB, nasa genes talaga ito.

daaaaaaaaaarn. kung kelan last month ko na, humabol pa ang stretchmark. good thing konti lang sa lower right ng tummy at di masyadong obvious.

anyway, maglalaho din naman yan soon kaya hindi dapat i ka stress

[coffeejelly]

Correct sis jaguar ganun na nga eh ang mom and aunties ko lahat meron sa tummy eh...although wala pa ako stretch marks now ha wean ko [textspeak!] sa mga susunod na weeks....

[dreamweaver83]

Grabe umaakyat yung stretch marks ko. Nag-appear siya mga 31 weeks ako almost overnight tapos unti-unti nang umaakyat. Now it's past my belly button na. Haay it seems kahit anong pahid ng kung [textspeak!]-ano di mo talaga mapprevent.

[chubbycheeks]

Still no stretchmarks at 30 weeks but maybe because my tummy isn't considered big. Di ko din napapansin na lumalaki sya so I guess gradual lang ang pag-stretch ng skin. I also rub Mustela Care Oil to help the skin's elasticity. Ang bango nya! Mas ok pala yun oil kesa lotion for me, I find it lighter and easier to spread.
