Recently found out I'm expecting. Any tips and tricks to prevent stretch marks and or take care of my skin the best I can?
I already have an 8 year old and during that pregnancy all I did was use palmers cocoa butter.
Thanks you for your help 😀

Palmers is awesome for that. You can also try coconut oil. Olivia is right in saying if it happens it does. You can't really prevent it but you can keep from getting itchy due to the stretching. If you didn't get them before, unless your second child is a lot bigger than your last, it's not likely you'll get them this time. I got some from my daughter and she was only 4lbs. 6 oz. at birth. Then I got more when I had my son he was 6lbs. 4oz. at birth lol

I agree that you can't prevent stretch marks but keep your skin moisturized so you won't be itchy and make your stretch marks worse when they do come.

Congrats girl! And yes I agree with the ladies but also when we expect we don't really worry how we eat of course lol but eating right so you won't gain unnecessary weight also plays a big part in stretch marks and also moisturizing and genetics lol if you're bound to have them they're just tiger stripes girl embrace the beauty of being a mommy :) But yes I have 4 after I had my first 2 I didn't have but a couple on my sides but omg when I had my 2 boys I gained about 70 lbs lol so yes my little princes are the ones who gave me my tiger stripes.. girl my last one was a big boy 8 lbs 11 ozs!!
