Postpartum stretch marks are too ugly. The key to prevent stretch marks is to do these two things well. See if you've done it.

Nobody still thinks that stretch marks only grow on the stomach, right?

Say a data:

Studies have shown that about 90% of women will have pink or purple patterns on their abdomen and chest after pregnancy! Among them, 40% pregnant mothers will have more serious stretch marks, covering the whole abdomen and even involving the waist and legs!

(For Asians, such data may be lower. )

Many people think that it is inevitable that a woman will have long stretch marks after giving birth to a baby.

This statement is not objective and somewhat absolute.

According to previous studies, the growth of stretch marks is mainly related to four factors: heredity, hormones, age and weight.

First, heredity.

Simply put, your grandmother had stretch marks when she gave birth to her mother, and your mother also had stretch marks when she gave birth to you, so your chances of getting stretch marks will be much higher.

But not absolutely! People like me are special. I didn't grow when I was born, and now I suspect that my mother's stretch marks are purely pregnant. If I eat too much, I will hold on.

Second, hormones.

Women will undergo major physiological changes after pregnancy, and the hormone level in the body will change greatly. I especially like progesterone, magnetic hormones and so on.

There is a hormone called relaxin, which is used to relax skin.

However, some studies show that the level of relaxation hormone in women with long stretch marks is lower than that in women without stretch marks.

If the level of these hormones decreases, it will lead to the decrease of connective tissue elasticity and the increase of elastic fiber layer fracture, thus increasing the risk of long stretch marks!

Third, age and weight.

Although stretch marks have a strong relationship with genes, other reasons, including weight and age, can not be ignored.

Therefore, weight and age can be controlled even if genetic and hormonal factors cannot be avoided.

The formation principle of stretch marks is mainly caused by the strain and fracture of elastic fibers in dermis, which is essentially a scar.

For example, if the abdomen bulge is too large and the weight gain is too fast during pregnancy, it will lead to the outbreak of stretch marks.

Some people don't have stretch marks because dermal fibers have higher elasticity and less loss of collagen, so the probability of long stretch marks will naturally decrease.

Taking these two places as the starting point, the prevention of stretch marks can be divided into two means:

? Improve skin elasticity

? Weight control during pregnancy

The two need to complement each other and do both:

Suggestion: choose cream products first! !

In the following clinical trial paper of Doctor ck anti-stretch marks cream and olive oil, 40 pregnant women were selected and gently massaged for 30 minutes twice a day. The conclusion after two months shows that the preventive effect of pregnant woman cream is better than olive oil.

Of course, whether the product can have an effect mainly depends on the effect!

Other products have not been used and have no right to speak. Only one product has been used, so we will take it as a case study:

Rejuvenation and pregnancy

The product was researched by otto hahn Scientific Laboratory, and there is also a product safety guarantee certificate in the details of a treasure's home page, and it has obtained professional organic certifications such as GMPC, ISO900 1 etc.

This cream of Nenfu has 48 kinds of ingredients added before and after * *, accounting for 25 kinds of patented active ingredients, and then matched with 2 kinds of plant extracts. It is roughly divided into four functional components: multiple compound amino acid moisturizing factor +95% purity Centella asiatica+ceramide+fermented extracts such as soybean and folic acid.

Let's talk about the core components that must be included in the whole series:

It can effectively relieve itching, dryness and other problems caused by excessive abdominal bulge and dry skin.

I still like the overall sense of use, the texture is a bit like milk tofu, cold and slippery. It has both the clarity of essence and the nourishment of frost. Compared with skin, it is more absorbent and refreshing when applied. There is no smell at all.

I used 2 bottles during the whole pregnancy, and more in the third trimester. Sometimes my stomach is dry and itchy, and I will get up in the middle of the night and apply it again. Dry itching has really eased a lot, and the skin has not felt uncomfortable. My stomach is smooth until after delivery, and there is not a stripe ~

Weight control during pregnancy

How much weight should I gain during pregnancy? You can refer to this table. My body mass index is 24, which belongs to the second grade. Weight gain during pregnancy should be controlled within 20 kg.

You can calculate your body mass index and sit in the right position.

It's best to record it in a small book like mine for easy observation.

Growth opinion: 1~3 months: try not to increase.

4~6 months: no more than 1kg per month.

7~9 months: per month 1~2kg.

Set yourself a feasible small goal first, refine it to every week, and insist on weighing every morning.

1, about diet

Don't worry about existence, bad influence and unhealthy influence. The point is how to match.

If you mix well, you can eat well and eat right.

Don't worry about the fetus not having enough to eat. This is the function of the body. Without what you eat, the fetus will not be short of food.

If you are overweight now, never control your weight by dieting.

Because you go on a diet, the mother will produce a substance that will damage the brain of the fetus.

2. About sports

You can do some mild and simple exercise properly.

Take a walk for 20-30 minutes after meals every day. Take a kettle with you when you walk. You can put some warm water or milk to replenish your strength.

In the first trimester, you can do some simple stretching exercises when you wash after getting up every day.

On Bili Bili or KEEP, you can do some yoga during pregnancy, which can not only exercise, but also calm down.

The above is my personal sharing. Finally, I wish all pregnant mothers a happy pregnancy experience. Remember to like it if it helps you.
