I was recently sent some of the Pure Mum To Be products by Marks and Spencer and have been using the Stretch Mark Oil every night. Stretch marks are apparently an unavoidable consequence of pregnancy for most people but (a) I figure it can't hurt and (b) I suffer from dry skin during the winter and I love using this oil just to keep my skin from becoming itchy and irritable. In my first pregnancy I was completely stretch mark-free until I was about 38 weeks pregnant, then I got a few small ones around the bottom of my bump. During my second pregnancy I got many more and much earlier too - although really nothing to complain too much about. By the time I got pregnant for the third time, my stretch marks had faded quite a lot but now they've become quite visible again. I think (or hope) at this point they're all still the old marks but I can't really tell. I shall keep using the Stretch Mark Oil just in case (and it smells pretty amazing too - perfect for bedtime).
PS. New hair! Shortest I've had my hair in ages and still getting used to it.
Previously: 16 weeks / 17 weeks / 18 weeks / 19 weeks / 20 weeks / 21 weeks / 22 weeks / 23 weeks

ReplyDeleteI didn't get stretch marks until my second either. Then I got really stretched out with my twins!! It's so worth it though!!
