Are you pregnant? Is your belly starting to grow and your not sure what to put on it? Are you weary of stretch marks? If so you are in luck because just like you I was totally freaked out about my body changing and what I would look like after the bump was gone. Knowing that I immediately started doing everything I could to not only stay in shape but also keep those stretch marks from forming. Below are a few key things I did for a very low cost in order to keep those stretch marks away. And I can say with all honesty during my pregnancy I gained 35 lbs and DID NOT get ONE stretch mark! (Trust me just because products are expensive does not mean they work, I did not buy into the BIo Oil, Coco Butter Stretch Cream or any other expensive cream or oils and if you follow my instructions neither will you!)
STEP 2: VITAMIN E 400 OIL - This is the most important part, buy a large container of vitamin E in pill form.
STEP 3: APPLICATION - Each night before I would go to bed I would brake open two - three vitamin E pills and rub it all over my belly, bikini line, butt and breasts. I suggest where ever you feel your skin is stretching apply it there. Make sure you rub it in really well it will be really sticky. To offset the stickiness you can try mixing the vitamin e with Eucerin lotion.
STEP 4: ON THE GO - When I was on the go there were many times I wanted to scratch my skin and instead of doing that I used Natural Stretch Oil by Earth Mama. I NEVER SCRATCHED MY BELLY! BIG NO NO!!! This is a great product to use in the morning and during the day because it smells great and is not sticky. It helps keep your growing belly moisturized which is so important to prevent stretch marks.
STEP 5: STAY HYDRATED - You can put all the product you want on the outside of your belly but it will not make any difference if you are not staying hydrated so make sure you are drinking a ton of water.
*Now of course you may still get stretch marks due to genetics and other factors but I do know this will help minimize them and hopefully prevent them all together. I did this method every single day before I was even showing any signs of a baby bump! So make sure you do this each day doing it sparitically will not help. :)
Until next time my lovely mamas! Stay styled right. xoxo FSR
HOW TO PREVENT STRETCH MARKS
STEP 1: LOOSE COTTON PAJAMAS - First thing you need to do is buy loose pajamas ones that you can use from the beginning to the end of your pregnancy. I ran really hot so I chose a cotton tank and shorts that supported my breasts and that allowed room for my growing belly. Once my pregnancy was over I threw these out they were definitely destroyed and gross but they served a great purpose!STEP 2: VITAMIN E 400 OIL - This is the most important part, buy a large container of vitamin E in pill form.
