I am about to turn 16 weeks and my belly started to grow. Unfortu ately even in my early teenage years had marks on my thigh and my breasts, so im pretty sure it's gonna be happening on my belly too shortly. Im wondering this cream could reduce these marks, or even i found some pages says this is the best would be pointless to buy? I know sometimes not the best one is the actually best one 😃 please share your experience with me. Thank youuuu :)))

I’m currently using the Mama Mio oil not the cream and it’s just amazing and definitely worth the money. Smells really fresh too and doesn’t make me nauseous. Haven’t tried the cream so no opinion on it but I read that Mama Mio products are pretty good anyway. I personally prefer the oil because my skin is so dry all the time and oils in general do a better job for me. xx
Btw stretch marks are also genetic so no matter how many skin products you use if you’re prone to them you will most probably still get some x

It's all down to genetics I'm afraid so I honestly wouldn't waste your money. Just get some nice body lotion so it doesn't itch.

I dont think any cream or oil will stop you getting stretch marks, if they're going to happen they will happen

I'm now 35 weeks and have been using the mama mio tummy rub butter every day since very early on. No stretch marks at all. I don't know if it's the cream or genetics but either way, it's a lovely way to pamper yourself and keep tummy moisturised so I'd say go for it. The lavender one is particularly nice 😊

Didn't do anything for me! I also didn't like the smell of the cream

I used this during pregnancy and didn’t think I had many stretch marks but you could clearly see them all after I gave birth. Sadly I think it’s all genetics I think. Bio oil will help fade the stretch marks

I’ve been using Burt’s Bees Mama Butter and no marks yet at 39 weeks (they’ll probably all appear tomorrow now I’ve said this though!) No idea if it’s the cream that’s helped so far or not but nothing to lose by trying (except the money, if you can afford to) and it has definitely helped with the odd bit of itching from the skin stretching if nothing else

I got a free sample of the mama mio tummy rum butter from the hospital - it smells horrible, would not recommend.
I’m 31 weeks and haven’t used any creams, no stretch marks yet

I used the oil in my first pregnancy and didn't get any stretch marks. I'm using it this time around although I do suspect genetics play the biggest role in whether you will get them or not. of course having moisturised skin and drinking lots of water is likely to help with the elasticity of your skin too
