I've been fighting stretch marks on my legs since I was 12 years old. They've faded into really light, but pretty deep lines after tons of cocoa butter, but now i'm 17 and almost 6 months pregnant. I've noticed about 4 brand new stretch marks on my legs, but they're really tiny, and i'm not much worried about them, but i'm worried about my belly. I've been using moisturizers twice a day, I mixed some of my old Vitamin E gelcaps in with my old coco butter, olive oil, baby oil after showers, and Palmers pregnancy coco butter. alot of people think i'm too vain for my own child, but if you have seen what my own mothers stomache looks like, you would be worried to. A few stretch marks don't bother me, but my mothers stomache is occupied by nothing more than stretch marks. Isn't there a laser treatment that can burn/freeze the first layer of skin, lets it heal, and do the same again until scar tissue is replaced by completely new skin? Unfortunately, every opinion is that if you are fair complected ( I am ), if you're mother had stretched marks ( she did ), and you were underweight when you got pregnant ( i was ) you have some wonderous chances at stretch marks.

  3. Unfortunately, when we gain and lose a lot of weight very rapidly or after pregnancy women are more likely to develop stretch marks, especially if they didn’t take the essentials steps to treat the skin. Usually oil and vitamin E are great because it minimizes the chances to develop stretch marks, but once you already have them, you have to treat them with products specially designed to treat the stretch marks. Probably laser will be the solution for really bad and big stretch marks, but like I said, you can do something about it even if you decide that you don’t want to do laser. You can also prevent future marks even during postpartum period by using the right treatment. I hope this helps you, but don’t feel too bad, it is really hard not to get stretch marks during pregnancy. In the future just keep in mind that using the right clothes, products and care can really make a difference.

    I could suggest this treatment that my friend who is 5 months pregnant is using. She seems to be very happy with the results. Good luck!

  5. Perhaps it's time for a one piece swim suit.  Vanity, vanity, all is vanity. Now that you are going to have a child to keep you very busy, you won't have much time to fuss about the parts most people won't see.  You'll be lucky if you get your fingernails polished, your makeup on, and your hair done all in one sitting.
