Pregnancy Bodycare

As soon as I found out I was pregnant I gave my body an extra little bit of love. I'd never really moisturised my skin before unless I was wear a dress and I'd quickly slap a bit of cream on my legs to make them look less dry. I've really got into the routine of moisturising my skin morning and night, I hope I still continue this once the baby is here, if I have the time. 

As far as preventing stretch marks go I have no way of saying if these products work but I do love the ritual of rubbing the cream into my bump and having a quick chat with the baby. 

Mama Mio - Tummy Rub Butter

Super fast drying so you can throw your clothes straight on. It is a gorgeous consistency and in the early days when I was feeling so sick it was a lovely treat to rub this on my stomach. 

Mama Mio - Tummy Rub Butter, Lavender and Mint 

Ahh this smells so good. I used up this tub during my second trimester and I wish I'd kept hold of it for the sleepless nights of the third trimester. 

Mama Mio - Tummy Oil 

Great for days when I feel like my skin can't quite stretch any further. Soaks into the skin pretty quickly and smells good too. 

Mama Mio - Pregnancy Boob Tube

I've been using this on my breasts since the second trimester. They haven't really grown much it does soothe them on the days they hurt.  

Palmers - Cocoa Butter Massage Lotion for Stretch Marks 

This is a purse friendly version of the Mama Mio Tummy Butter in my opinion. I find this great for days when I am in a rush and want to rub some cream on my tummy and then throw my clothes straight on. I also slather this over my breasts to help prevent any stretch marks. 

Palmers - Cocoa Tummy Butter 

Although it is quite hard to get out the tub and you do have to rub the balm between your hands which turns into an oil like substance, I do really like this product. It smells delicious but it does take a long time to absorb into your skin. So I tend to use this on a night time as I am not as fussed with ruining my pjs.
