how do i get rid of stretch marks?

[neeleymartin]

didn't have these throughout my pregnancy. since my stomach has shrunk they have appeared.

want to be stretch mark-free just in case playboy knocks on my door. lol.

Besides finding some sort of voodoo magic I don't know what to tell you except for they fade a lot in time.

Don't worry. Playboy will photoshop them right out of your centerfold.

Remember photoshop every time you see a picture of a perfect looking stretch mark free celeb mom in a bikini 4 moments after giving birth.

Nothing will get rid of them as far as I know. They just fade. Badges of honor for growing a healthy baby.

They retouch so much nowadays that it is next to impossible to know what is real anymore.

Oh this made me laugh so hard! If only it were that easy!


Short of having a tummy tuck and getting that whole section lopped off, I'm not sure if there is anything that can be done. And I have them BAD.

Spanx. Or a nice Land's End tankini.

I swear, the other day I looked in the mirror and saw my Mother's body!! I just had DC #2 and he was over 9lbs. The breasts sag, lots of stretch marks on the stomach, thighs, and breasts, belly button is all wrinkly. I always wondered why my Mom's body looked the way it did. I'm now her. BUT I wouldn't trade a thing for my two beautiful children! :) Badges of honor as someone said.

but seriously, thanks for the advice.
