nurse.. bad advice??

hey girls, the nurse has said at my pre-op dont bother with any bio-oils or cocoa butter before or after surgery. Im slightly confused as people on here have swore by it!!

I was told at my over due appointment when i was pregnant that if you are going to get stretch marks then you will. He said its hereditary, i dont believe that bit as my mum had 7 children, no stretch marks. I got them with my 1st! I have however read that its to do with not having enough zinc in your diet. So maybe a good healthy diet will help.

The creams cant harm can they, do what ever is necessary. Prevention is better than cure after all in this case

Wat u say is true chellebelle! Unfortunatly if ur gonna get em u will, no matter wat u use. I religiously used every cream goin thru biloth my pregnancies n nothing worked! I easily spent a good few hundred quid! It all depends on ur skin xxx

I’ve never used any oils and only got a couple of very faint and small stretch marks on my belly after 3 children but my sister got covered in them after her first and she spent loads on creams etc. If you’re gonna get them you will get them but there is no harm in using creams if it makes you feel better xx
