| My Best Way to Prevent Stretch Marks
During my second pregnancy my waist measurement went from 24″ to 48″ but I managed to avoid getting any stretch marks…I’m very lucky! Instead of using a lotion or potion, I put coconut oil on my bump everyday. The smell was gorgeous, and knowing that I wasn’t putting any chemicals on my skin was reassuring. I found it also eased the itching that I suffered from when the weather was hot. It might not work for everyone…but it’s certainly worth a try if you’re pregnant. The one I used was by Biona and is available from Goodness Direct. A small jar (£3.69) would last an entire pregnancy.
