My Body, After Pregnancy Posted: 05-09-06 16:28pm
My baby girl is now 6 mos. Old, and
within a month after having her I was back
down to my normal size.. But my skin is
still a little loose, and i've done
sit-ups and every other belly exercise
that I know of. I also have some stretch
marks, there fading.. But is there
anything I can do or use to get the
natural processes to work faster??

Not really. Get out in the sun - that'll
make your stretch marks fade faster than
anything, but the loose skin will just
have to tighten up on its own. I had my
baby girl 16 months ago and i've been at
my prepreg weight for about 9 months. My
skin is still a little loose too.

It takes 2 years for your body to
completely heal(skin tightening takes the
longest) accroding to the wife.

Omg you would think they never go away
they actually dont they lighten up/fade
abit but never really dissapear
best bet put on lotion or even better
vitamin e works miracles, my friend
mentioned natural herbs that help.....
I have two kids and I gained a $hitload of
weight with both so I got my fair share of
strecth marks!!
