I'm Currently Feeling:  | Just remeber there is always someone worse off *warning stretch marks*
There has been a few posts recently about stretch marks. Mine appear to be much worse than others that have posted and i just wanted to remind people that there is always some one worse off.
I have used Bio Oil religiously since i found out i was pregnant (obviously it didn't work  ) A friend of mine has recommended Emu Oil to help them fade so i'm going to get some. Any one else used this?
I have also heard people say that if your mother had stretch marks then you are more likely too. This is not true in my case my mother had 3 children and never got stretch marks with any of us!! It just appears to be one of those things and i know they will eventually fade.
So here it goes... my proud mummy marks!!  
Sorry about the long post and rather large pics  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have really bad marks, but I'm also really dark brown so you can't see them that well at all!
