    Yep Stevie, I had no idea either! Came as a complete shock, I was quite smug being stretch mark free . Didn't last long though!

    Ooops forgot to post that on the Happy Event tube it says to keep applying for 4 weeks after the birth of your baby....so yes, apparently it is not uncommon to get stretchmarks after the baby is born!

    I used almond oil and palmers tummy butter every day all over my belly and not one stretch mark...on my belly. Unfortunately genetics and skin elasticity were against me and I got horrible ones basically everywhere else - on my hips, butt and inner thighs!!

    I still use both product and at least they are fading now and I know for next time to use the almond oil and tummy butter everywhere, not just my belly!

    I've been using Bio Oil morning and night with the Palmers Stretch Mark Cream occassionally in between...skins looking great, so far.....I also think the Fish Oil that I take every day would help from the inside too.

    I think it's all a matter of lucky genetics, my mum had 6 kids and no stretch marks, hopefully I'll take after her!
