Ugh...New Symptom

Dry skin! I feel like a lizard! I thought it was from hanging out in a casino all weekend.  But this is extreme. I've never been this dry. I drink soooo much water too. My mom said she had dry skin during pregnancy too. I guess I'll just have to stay on top of my lotions and oils. Tonight I read that dry skin makes stretch marks worse too! Ugh...

  • Lotion, lotion, lotion :)  Go with the thick, creamy ones that you can literally feel soaking into your skin.  After the shower, while your skin is still a little moist is a great time to lather up.  Ugh...stretch marks.  :/

  • My skin was so dry during both of my pregnancies that I started using the Hawaiian Tropics coconut oil instead of lotion. It helped soothe the dry and itchy feelings.
