I developed contact dermatitis to Palmer's :-(

Currently half way through a tub of MamaBee stuff - I love it :-)

There's so many different creams out there now, & in some cases "because of certain ingrediants" in them are so good for us "during pregnancy" to use daily mainly due to some acids.

have a look on this website called "African pride.com" ive been using a shea butter lotion i bought from there a couple of weeks ago & i swear by it.

im 29 weeks. no stretch marks on my bump (touch wood), but my boobs have grown soooo much. only a year ago i had a breast enlargement and didnt have any stretch marks. but since being pregnant ive gone from a 30dd to a 32ff!! i use bio oil all over me. it costs a fortune and i cant seen it helping the stretch marks. lol x

Nothing will take stretch marks away, only plastic surgery any of those creams will be good fir the skin but none makes miracles, I was 20 when I had my first baby and I have stretch marks in my thighs, bum and breasts and I am not embarrassed sone of my friends have in the tummy more than me and even red ones but you can still use the cream its good for a the skin

Bio oil's been great for me. Been using it on my tummy the whole time and no marks, yet I have red "leopard spots" across my hips and down the front of my thighs where I haven't been using it, so who knows :)

DermalMD Wonderful Cream to use. It helps maintain a youthful look and is wonderful for a pregnant woman's belly (that's why I bought it). Enjoy.

I got stretch marks on my boobs, hips, bum and thighs as a teenage and I hated them and I still do. I have none on my tummy, I’ve been using palmers stretch marks over my bump and have also just got bio oil, Superdrug had some brilliant offers on them. But unfortunately, there’s nothing you can do, your skin is stretching and it’s luck of the draw if you get them or not x

no creams or lotions really help or prevent stretch marks. Its all a marketing gimmick!

No they don’t. If you get them, you get them. Like I said I was using cream, I got to 34 weeks with no stretch marks, then bang al over my tummy. Yea I hate them, but I think I carried my child, put on 3 stone and was all belly. I was bound to get them.

I have a grand total of 1 inch-long hip mark so far at 35 weeks. No creams or lotions/potions used. My mum had 4 kids and had no stretch marks at all. Genes must play a part!
