I am in the third trimester of my pregnancy. I have seen very bad stretch marks. And I am really scared that I may get it. Need suggestions on what I can do to prevent stretch marks.
Now my tummy itches a lot and someone told me that I should not itch as it may cause stretch marks. Is it really true.
The best way is to eat a balanced diet and keep hydrated. The worst thing that can cause stretch marks is gaining more than the recommended weight during pregnancy.
There are some Stretch mark creams available in the market. You can give it a try. I am using one sent to me by my sis who lives in the US. My sis said it was helpul for her.
I have heard that cocoa butter works. You can give it a try.
