is there any way to keep from getting stretch marks when your pregnant? and how? and will a c-section leave scars?

Best thing to prevent stretch marks is to keep the skin moist. Use a cocoa butter on your stomach and side areas. Yes, a C-section will leave a scar, but most doctors can do the procedure low (under your bikini line).

I am not sure if there really is any way to prevent the stretch marks. The c/birth scar, as far as that goes, mine disappeared in about 5 years. I just could not find it, he did such a good job. It was a pfannensteil incision, cut across real low. Hopefully that will by that way for you. I tell you that little baby is worth all that and more. Congratulations ahead of time :)

You're less likely to get stretch marks if you don't gain *too* much weight during pregnancy. But, other than that, I think it's genetic who gets the stretch marks. I was lucky- I didn't get any.
A C-section definitely leaves a scar- right above the pubic hair line. But it gets less nasty looking as time goes on.

I don't see how you can get away with no stretch marks but Palmer's Cocoa butter lotion for stretch marks helps. As far as a C section goes, I have had two and no more bikini

Any lotion the has cocco butter in it will definatley fade or try to prevent stretch marks. But they will happen, talk to any GNC or health store associate(they may better assist you)
