I just had a baby 3 months ago and am starting to return to my pre - pregnancy weight. This is my second child and now have the perfect family and am finished having kids. I was just wondering if stretch marks..seen in the picture will be there forever or eventually go away??

Well I look like I was attacked by a tiger from stretch marks haha. Mine have faded but I highly doubt they'll go away. I heard Bio oil works well!

they will go away..maybe not completely, but then again, maybe so..bodies are obviously different..it took me years to start losing weight, and mine are just now starting to fade..best of luck, and congrats :happy:

maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones. mine will be around forever, unless i have surgery to remove all the extra skin.

**edited to say: congrats on the new arrival.

Bio oil works! It defiantly softens the lines. Even on an old scar from surgery

I just had a baby 6 months ago & im 7lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight. Although I too have stretch marks & im told they never go away, they just fade eventually. I hate them, although i might get skinny i will never wear a 2 piece again because of my stretch marks. There are lots of things you can do to make them look better like creams & for some tanning works but the only way to actually get rid of them is plastic surgery. I freakin hate them. ugh =/

Who cares about your stretch marks, they are battle wounds!!! Represent! Beside, you have a precious brand new gift in your life AND I think you look phenomenal.

I gave birth to 3 kids within 4 1/2 years so I have stretch marks on my stomach, sides & thighs. I gave birth for the last time 8 1/2 months ago & my stretch marks have faded extremely. Make sure you use lotion everyday to keep your skin hydrated. There's this mederma lotion that is advertised to fade them but since I hardly notice mine I don't have to try it out

They will fade after awhile, it took about a year or two after my second one. This time around I can't lose the weight, which I have to do before the stretch marks fade. I can say that the Bio Oil has worked WONDERS on my csection scar from this last baby- so it probably would have an effect on stretch ,arks too....
