Having put on nearly 3 stone and nearly all out front, I can happily report that not a single stretchmark was evident! (Ok my belly is a bit bigger but it was s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d to the limit!). Some say this is genetic, I am not sure about that as I did rapidly put on weight and lose it in my teens and got stretchmarks.
I used Jojoba oil or
unrefined Wheatgerm oil at night and rubbed all over the body
from the thighs up to the top of the breasts. For a non
greasy base during the day I used Vitamin E Cream. (Until
I got to a very itchy stage and was prescribed good old E45
cream - prescription charges free during pregnancy and got

**Before using on any scar or deep wound please consult your physician. Do not apply essential oils to surgery sites that still have stitches or tape in place.** We do not recommend using ANY essential oils during pregnancy to be on the safe side (just leading up to the labour is fine though providing you are under the supervision of an aromatherapist or using those advised for labour).

If
baby is suffering from colic try this remedy which helps to
reduce gastrointestinal pain, gas and abdominal spasms.
Make up a blend of chamomile roman UK in a base such as
sunflower or coconut oil and massage on baby's tummy in a CLOCKWISE
direction (use 1 drop for every tablespoon of base oil - 15mls) - apply half an hour
before feeding. 
Babies love massage - the power of touch is really
important and can help you bond even more with your baby.
A gentle and soothing blend of organic essential oils of
Lavender and Camomile in a sweet almond base, created for
massaging babies (from 8 weeks old) and children
babies, using coconut oil, which has even stronger antibacterial
and antiviral properties will help create a natural barrier to
infection and keep the skin soft and supple. Coconut oil
contains lauric acid (up to 50%) which is the constituent in
breast milk which helps strengthen the immune system. We
do not recommend using talcum powder as it can block pores and
can irritate lungs if breathed in large quantities, the jury is
still out on a link between ovarian cancer - the regulatory
bodies say its safe but other studies suggest otherwise.
Allowing the body to breathe and keeping it moisturised with
100% natural ingredients* is the best way of protecting your precious
baby - its great for you too! Coconut Oil is
also great to clear up cradle cap, simply allow to seep into the
scalp and use a fine toothed comb to get rid of scales.....
Balm
Balm Baby Balm is an ultra gentle, multipurpose blend of natural
oils and waxes, to soothe even the most delicate of skin. Use to
care for baby's bottom, dry skin, cradle cap or even for your own
hands & face. A perfectly simple way to care for your precious skin.
For baby's and grown ups too! Small enough pot to fit in your
handbag or baby bag.
oconut
oil I would have used that instead!
