As I was taking a shower on Saturday, I found strech marks on my belly.

some people just have skin that is less elastic too- that's why some women do get stretch marks from pregnancy and some don't.
but there are creams and such like the cocoa butter that are suggested- you might do a search on google or something to see what is the best one suggested.

Oh Wendy, sorry about your stretch marks. Do you think maybe they will get less noticable later? I got'em real bad from having 4 kids. First ones were so shocking. I know how you feel. Seems to me if skin is made to expand, it ought to shrink?
I am old enough now to have all these stretch marks, sagging chest, wrinkles on neck, celulite(spell?), brown spots on my face, and somebody's elses hands (mine couldn't look like this) you name I got it! ![]() ![]() ![]() edited to add: about dealing with my body now...I just stand in front of the mirrow with my eyes closed or take off my glasses and I look great! ![]() Last edited by froglady; 03-13-2007 at 09:20 PM. |
