I agree with you, I'm comfortable with my body, & I love the way I look! & I love being in my bikini in the summer because I feel good about my self and my weight. Being pregnant I only weigh 125 ..right now. & my doctor said he only expects me to gain about 20 more pounds. If you feel good about yourself and the way you look, stretch marks are just one thing some people want to avoid as much as possible,

Exactly. And being pregnant doesnt mean you have to gain weight. I gained 20lbs all together, ate extremly healthy, and was 5lbs lighter then my pre preganancy body by the end of that week, (probably due to breastfeeding) anyhow, some people look at being pregnant as a excuse to eat whatever they want. But really the weight you gain isnt suppose to be all FAT, its suppose to be baby, fluid, blood..ect. Some people gain weight easier then others, however if you eat healthy you should be fine! I bought a amazing cook book from Walmart called 100 calorie cookbook, and made all my meals from there. It was amazing. You should check it out.

I care how I look, but I care for myself not for other people. I could care less about how you think I look because it's really not that important to impress people. But thank you for assuming I don't give a smurf about myself or my body. ;) I barely gained during my pregnancy because of HG, still got stretch marks, and 7 and a half weeks later still think I look good.

I never assumed,I put a question mark after i stated, "maybe you just dont care how you look?" BECAUSE I dont know you. It was more a question, not a assumption. You started a pointless argument about how people shouldent care about stretch marks, but the reality is that certain things such as stretch marks make some girls insicure about their bodies. Maybe they dont bother all people, but they do some people and theres nothing wrong with them wanting to prevent them <<<Back to the main point of the topic!!

I might have to look into that! & honestly I wasn't the only one worried about me getting stretch marks, my doctor was too. But anyways, I just got over the whole sickness thing, for a while the only thing I could drink is lemonade or powerade and about the only thing I could eat with out getting sick was sour patch kids( which totally isn't healthy) but for the last couple days I've been able to eat fruits & vegetables, & drink water alot more, its starting to seem like I'm always hungry too! But when I was sick I couldn't hardly keep anything down

Yeah the sickness part is horrible, and exhasting. I was a total bitch during that time, and was not happy with my self at all. lol. but once your totally past that you should feel great. Being pregnant also changes your taste buds, Its weird. some things I didnt like till I was pregnant, and some things that I liked before I still cant eat to this day.

<blockquote><b>Quoting talexys:</b>" Really because I used palmers tummy better for before,DURING, and after pregnancy. Active ingrediants; Collagen, elastin. 2 very powerful ingrediants to improve elasticity."</blockquote>




I also used Palmers tummy butter once to twice a day while pregnant with my daughter, I started using it as soon as I found outi was pregnant... So 6 weeks. I didn't get any stretch marks even after... I swear by that stuff, I gained 32lbs with her as well. I am currently 11 weeks with baby #2 and i am using tummy butter again daily!
